I now see the same thing as in your latest image of what I should see.
What is wrong with this link?

PM sent but basically -
Go to Wikipedia page
Ctrl C on address
Come back here
Click link icon
Ctrl V
Submit and you get the garbage shown.
Repeat for other pages and they look fine as in:

When I post the link, the following is what I get:
This is the AME product that grabs some information from the URL/Address when embedding some content. YouTube and Wiki links are a few of these examples. The product has been enabled since last year and is meant to make embedding easier.
You can not only manually override the links, but you can disable it per post by removing the "Automatically embed media (requires automatic parsing of links in text to be on)" option under the Additional Options section of the full-reply form.

OK, that is what is not working. Here is what I see with a different Wikipedia link -
My original post in this thread looks the same but when I look at Savewave's reply again I notice it looks OK and works but still doesn't have all the detail added that yours does. Since you posted images of your screen rather than links, yours look OK but don't work as links.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Delayed_gratificationThat looks and works OK in preview post with or without Automatically embed media. It looks and works OK after posting with Automatically embed media off but not on. With it off I obviously won't get all the detail you have.

I believe I see the issue. You have a broken image displayed in your browser. By default, Firefox (the browser I use) does not show broken images. That's why my screen capture looks normal and also why the issue wasn't apparent. It appears there should be a wikipedia image that appears for wikipedia links.
I will check into either fixing the broken image or removing that feature if it's not really useful or pretty.
Thanks

I believe the following is what it supposed to look like. You should now also see the same thing on your end:
