Wikipedia's most-edited list
Do you use Wikipedia(维基百科) to find information about people, places, things and events? Have you ever wondered who writes all the information? The website is actually run by thousands of everyday people, as well as computers that can automatically update(自动更新) certain pages. You can even write something on a page if you want to.
Of course, it means that somebody can write incorrect information on a page. That does happen sometimes, but usually somebody else corrects the information quickly.
Wikipedia has counted how many times each page has been edited(编辑) this year and one page stood out.“Deaths in 2016”was edited 18,230 times. That is likely because lots of high-profile(知名度高的) people, including English singer David Bowie, American singer Prince, American boxer Muhammad Ali and former Cuban President Fidel Castro, died in 2016.
The 2016 US presidential election(总统选举) was followed by people around the world. It was also a popular page to edit on Wikipedia. The “Donald Trump” page had 8,933 edits and took second spot. The third most-edited page was related(与……有关)to Hillary Clinton, and the election itself took the fourth spot.
Pages about movies, sports, world events, natural disasters(灾难), musicians and artists all appeared in the top 25 most-edited list. Vincent Van Gogh's page received 3,551 edits during the year. Four Wikipedia editors rewrote the page in order to give people a clear understanding of the Dutch partner's true nature, according to one editor.
The variety of pages that were edited shows how people with entirely different interests are still all looking for information.
