According to this quiz I just took- from the addictive sporcle.com- here are the 10 most-searched items on Wikipedia from January to October 2009:
1. Michael Jackson (musician)
2. Barack Obama (politician)
3. Eminem (musician)
4. Lil Wayne (musician)
5. Adolf Hitler (er, politician?)
6. Rihanna (musician)
7. Abraham Lincoln (politician)
8. Lady Gaga (musician)
9. Megan Fox (actress)
10. Martin Luther King (activist)
Odd bedfellows, no?
Further down I don’t know whether it’s good or bad that the porn star Sasha Gray is slotted between Josef Stalin and Prince. And ranked no. 200? Tiger Woods. Something tells me that’s going to change…

Whats funny is that I have probably wikipedia’d 7 or 8 of those in the past three months
