featuring two articles a day. One from a traditional

That's a false division of content. Wikipedia merely has more space
for pop-culture topics than traditional paper encyclopedias. Anyway,
pop culture on Wikipedia is one of our greatest assets - it attracts a
lot of new users who would not otherwise read encyclopedia articles.
It also attracts deletionists who would otherwise have nothing to
bitch about, or would they find something else? *shrug*
