Pokemon Ranks Above Porn in the 100 Top Wikipedia Sites

The results are in, and if Wikipedia is to be believed, people look for Pokemon more than they hunt down Pornography.

That’s the verdict of WikiCharts, an experimental tool used to analyze the popularity of Wiki pages. According to the page itself, it’s only three days old, and it does mention that there are bugs that need to be fixed before it can really be considered accurate. That’s a good thing to note since, if you look at the deviations for the views per day, there’s a deviation of +/- 107%. Of course, Pokemon will probably still rank higher than Porn.

What else is WikiCharts good for?

It’s a pretty good indicator of what’s on the mind of internet goers, even with its potential inaccuracies. For instance, the current 2nd placer is a very distant second, with the first place having almost 80,000 more page views.

What’s in second place? JonBenét Ramsey. First place goes to Wikipedia’s main page, which really ought to be counted out of the whole thing.

See? They still need to work out some kinks.

Other notables in the Top 100 English Wikipedia picks are:
– Pokemon (6th)
– Table of Disney Characters (16th)
– Pornography (19th, strangely enough)
– List of Sex Positions (25th)
– Grigory Perelman (32nd, and also one of the other Fields Medal winners aside from Terence Tao)
– Pyramid Head (61st, and actually beats Silent Hill itself on the list), and
– Dave Karnes (100th, helped free trapped policemen during 9/11)
