I was trying to find counterexamples to Joss Whedon's famous claim that the blonde gets killed off in horror movies (supposedly why he created Buffy).
Needless to say, using Wikipedia for this purpose means looking at articles about horror movie characters and checking the color of the hair in the image.
And of course Wikipedia turned out to be absolutely useless.
Unless a person's hair color is considered encyclopedic information, I can't see why we would go out of our way to describe it. Some investigations will always require going to the primary sources.
