The 25 Most Popular Wikipedia Pages Of 2019
What have we been learning about this year? Here are the 25 most popular Wikipedia pages for 2019.
No matter what your college professors tell you, Wikipedia is actually a pretty valuable resource for anyone who wants to learn about pretty much everything, so much so that it’s kind of hard to imagine what people did before it.
In a blog post this week, Wikipedia published a list of its top 10 most visited pages of the year, and there was a strong skew towards movies and television.
Indeed, even the searches that aren’t explicitly about movie stars or actors are clearly influenced by movies or TV shows of the past year — such as Bohemian Rhapsody, The Ted Bundy Tapes and Chernobyl.
