Wikipedia Editor Exposes Biggest Self-Promotion Scandal

Image
The Unseen Architect: How One Man Staged the Biggest Wikipedia Hoax in History Imagine the most popular topics on Wikipedia, translated into hundreds of languages. What comes to mind? Countries, perhaps? Major religions? Iconic figures? You'd be right, mostly. Countries like Turkey (332 languages), the US (327), and Japan (324) dominate the top spots. Everyday concepts like "dog" (275 languages) edge out "cat" (273). Even historical figures like Jesus (274) outrank Adolf Hitler (242). And surprisingly, words like "fever," "Chiang Kai-Shek," and even the number "13" leave "sex" (a mere 122 languages) far behind. But what if we told you that, just a few months ago, a truly unknown name surpassed them all, briefly claiming the undisputed crown of Wikipedia's most translated subject? With a staggering 335 entries, he was an enigma, a digital ghost, a name you’ve almost certainly never heard: **David Woodard**. Who is D...
