‘List Of WWE Personnel’ Wikipedia Page Breaks Record

Odds are that if you’re reading this, you’ve visited the ‘List of WWE Personnel’ page on Wikipedia at least once, and that page holds an interesting record.

As per an article by the BBC, the page has been edited more times than any other in the history of Wikipedia.

The article has over 53,000 edits to date and overtook George W. Bush’s page to take the lead.

The BBC writes:

For many years the George W Bush page was the one with the most edits, but now it has been overtaken by this one.

The list of WWE professional wrestlers has had more than 53,000 edits over the years.

But although the “sport” attracts its fair share of controversy it seems its number one spot is less about fights between editors, than the passion of its fans.

They come here to log every single wrestler who has ever climbed into the ring, along with their managers and every other person connected to WWE.

Wikipedia may be the place you go to try to puzzle out quantum computing or find out how many US presidents have been impeached, but all human life is here.

At least until an editor decides an entry is just too trivial for inclusion and suggests it should be deleted.
