The article title does not have a space before the ellipsis and I see no good reason why the space should not be there.

@Schwede66: I would assume that MOS:ELLIPSIS is referring to how to write prose, not article titles. I can't find precedent that we conform ellipsis spacing to the MOS in titles. Here are some examples I found:
All sources use the "... " form. [5], [6], [7] (except Rolling Stone, which unspaces the ellipsis). Spacing the ellipsis in a way that no sources do would fail the "Naturalness" part of WP:CRITERIA. — PerfectSoundWhatever (t; c) 16:11, 7 July 2024 (UTC)
