Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Paul McCartney. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:

Strange search result on Google

Hey. I just searched for Paul McCartney on google. I took a picture of what came up: Linkitylink

I am not sure if it is a wiki-thing or a google-thing, or if the article preview is even supposed to look as it does. I just wanted to bring it to the attention of someone with more knowledge about it than me :). --92.243.251.196 (talk) 17:26, 1 April 2016 (UTC)[reply]
