Actually, RandomPage gives an accurate view of wikipedia: we have far more of Ram-Man's articles than anything else, so they turn up more than anything else.  A year ago we had far more Atlas Shrugged articles than anything else, so *those* would always turn up.  The solution?  Write more articles on other topics.
