Fiction on wikipedia The extent of fiction on wikipedia is mind-blowing. It's to be expected, I suppose: some people simply find fiction more interesting than reality and every corner of fiction has an online following of enthusiasts. I myself enjoy writing about fiction more than I do about real things. Still, I sometimes begin to think that Wikipedia is becoming more fiction than anything else. It would be interesting to know just what the number of fiction-based articles actually is. I'm not suggesting it be removed, but it's a sad reflection of the community that's trying to build an encyclopedia. In any case, I'm going to make an effort to not get sucked into more and more fiction-watching on wikipedia. Instead I'm going to try and concentrate more on what truly interests me; articles of science.
