Hi,

there is an issue when plugin publish search results in note: it put results in the middle of frontmatter and not in cursor location...

This #16 seems to be a duplicate of #17.

Looking at the code, it seems like possibly it is inserted to actually replace the selection:

https://github.com/jmilldotdev/obsidian-wikipedia/blob/master/main.ts#L165

editor.replaceSelection(this.formatExtractInsert(extract, searchTerm));

From testing, this does seem to resolve the problem.

If you put in your heading, and then the place where you want the content to be injected, it replaces. Example:

# Obsidian 

content (select this text)

Result:

# Obsidian
