We're always looking for ways to make Google News more useful by providing our users with more context on current events, whether through images, quotes, or the News timeline. In addition to news sources, Google News provides links to Wikipedia topic pages that serve as reference pages for current events. These links will appear on certain story clusters on the Google News home and section pages.
Wikipedia pages about current events offer additional context and background material, making Google News more relevant to users who want more context on the news. These topic pages are clearly marked as such, with the designation "Wikipedia" as well as the title of the page, to distinguish them from news sources.
