I've been challenging myself to find problems with the top regular articles listed at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Special:Mostlinked and I'm 4 for 4 so far. I've fixed basic problems in the following articles that any decent editor should have been able to catch:
http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Special:Whatlinkshere&target=F... http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Public_domain http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_copyright_law
Maybe the editors here should pay more attention to the most linked articles.
If anyone wants to challenge me to find a problem with an article, just name it. This is still fun for now, but it's not making me feel any better about Wikipedia.

I thought "wow, that's a weird set of most-linked articles", and then I realised that three of them are there because of the tens of thousands of image-description tags. I wonder if we can generate a list of most-linked-from-the-main-namespace easily...
