I have an uneducated theory: Maybe it’s because all these have a box before the first paragraph (because the articles have some issues) and therefore the plugin doesn’t know which text to use.

I wonder if this is related to images from Wikimedia Commons not displaying for the past few weeks.

It’s not. That’s intentional (and hopefully temporary), this isn’t.

Seems to be working now. At least with the examples I posted above. I haven’t looked for any others yet.
