Wikipedia Top 100 Pages by Views

An interesting site listing the top one hundred Wikipedia pages by views offers a fascinating insight into readership interests. As one would expect, pages related to sex or pornography are in clear evidence, but some of the other top 100 results are a little less predictable and rather intriguing.

Of the interesting entries in the chart it is interesting to note that the Irukandji Jellyfish comes in at number eleven, just above pornography (which is rather unexpected). It is also interesting to note that Pokemon slots in at number sixteen, just above the events of 9/11.

The US Airforce will, I am sure, be ecstatic that they are one slot above Batman but only two slots above a list of gay porn stars, though Disney will not be as happy to find that a list of their characters comes in two places below this. George Washington is at number 64, just below sex, whereas Mel Gibson, at number 69, is one above a search of aliens at 69 – which seems fair enough to me.

Other odd linkages by place rankings are masturbation and Che Guevara, at 89 and 88 respectively, and Bob Dylan at 72 – one below Spiderman.

Unsurprisingly, a list of big-busted models and performers sits at number four.
