Note: the above is not a list of the 150 Most-Edited Wikipedia Articles about law. In fact, and in relation to most-edited articles in Wikipedia, George W. Bush has been by far, in 2011, the most contested article among Wikipedia editors: Through November 2013, the page had been revised 45,273 times. That’s three revisions for every word in the article.
The Wikipedia entry on Barack Obama has been revised 23,514 times — just slightly ahead of Adolf Hitler (23,499 revisions). Ronald Reagan, Abraham Lincoln and Bill Clinton all make it into the top 100 (Sarah Palin falls just short, in 104th place).
Articles on religion, including Jehovah’s Witnesses and Muhammed, or about specific countries, such as the United States and Israel, attract plenty of revisions. More surprising, however, is that World Wrestling Entertainment (WWE) features in more revised articles than any other single body — seven — and is responsible for the second-most-revised article: list of WWE personnel.
