Traffic report

Wonder Woman beats Batman, The Mummy, Darth Vader and the Earth

The Top 25 Report summarizes the most popular articles each week, drawing from Andrew West's Top 5000 list. We often republish the top 10. Here are all 25, with commentary by OZOO, Igordebraga and our own Eddie891.

Summer blockbusters and sports, Trump and world events

It has been an eventful week in the world of Wikipedia page views. Gal Gadot (retaining first place from last week) was buoyed by the success of the Wonder Woman (2017 film), which took second place. The 2017 NBA Finals kept Kevin Durant (#3), LeBron James (#11), Steph Curry (#17), the Golden State Warriors (#21) and List of NBA Champions (#10) in the top 25. Despite mixed reviews, The Mummy (2017 film) was propelled to #5. Other entertainment figures and productions ranked high as well. A movie about Tupac Shakur shot him up to #12, Dear Evan Hansen was propelled to #14 and Orange Is the New Black was catapulted up to #19 after the release of a fifth season.

On a sadder note, injury and deaths (#9) also ranked high on the list. The deaths of Adam West (#4), and the injury of Steve Scalise (#8) featured prominently. E.

Thanks for the list. It's always a wonderful insight to what everyone's latest distraction is :) —TheDJ (talk • contribs) 09:24, 23 June 2017 (UTC)[reply]
I'm afraid to make the change because I might be wrong, but Steve Scalise's condition would not have "degraded" if it changed from "imminent risk of death" to "critical". Unless I'm missing something. — Vchimpanzee • talk • contributions • 19:40, 12 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
