Not trying to be a smart-aleck, but I can *easily* imagine flamewars 
over entirely non-notable people -- flamewars perpetuated by the very 
people and people that know them. Because Bob drools over Jane and Jane 
thinks Bob is a Jerk and Jane's brother is dating Bob's sister and Bob 
can't stand Jane's brother's guts. Now Jane is leaning into Bob's 
Wikipeople entry and Bob is eager to let the world know that..., etc. 
etc. etc.
Ad infinitum et ad nauseam.
