Here's a funny tidbit from today's Wall Street Journal that relates to the show we know and love - about a new "sport" on the Internet: coming up with the best examples of how Wikipedia is skewed towards popular culture.
For instance, the West Wing of the White House merits a 1,100-word entry on Wikipedia - an online encyclopedia anyone can edit - while The West Wing, the seven-season TV smash, has an 6,800-word write-up.
Check out a few examples cited by the Wall Street Journal in the graphic below... including a picture of Ellen Pompeo and the annihilation of Gray's Anatomy, the medical text, by ABC's Grey's Anatomy ...

I love that Optimus Prime has 13,500 words. And I honestly didn't think there was that much to say about prime numbers - I could be wrong...
