Seriously, where did those figures come from? 4,535
articles on
digimon characters? huh?
The two article surveys cited include 493 still-existent articles. At
the time I started mangling statistics, Wikipedia had 1,117,850
articles. So, it was simply a matter of multiplying the article
counts in the surveys by 2,267.44 and rounding to the nearest integer.
Using google, excluding pages that have the word "talk", "user", or
"archive", Digimon still gets about 18,500 en.wikipedia results. Pokemon gets
about 30,100. About 643 for the category "american porn stars". If we can get
porn stars more coverage, they are MASSIVE after all, I might compromise on splitting pop
culture into a separate pedia.~~~~Pro-Lick
