Wikipedia is intended for the general audience first, and the expert audience in the second place. Why not just showing the canonical and didactically well suited exponentially decaying Zipf curve (i.e., in linear scale) first and then get to the more recent or advanced insights further down this page?

Additional arguments:

a) The current log figures are for the expert and hide the astonishing imbalance in the distribution

b) The log-scale figures do not allow for a natural excursion into the phenomenon 'long tail' which is visually very evident from a linear plot, not from a logarithmic plot.

I will not do this myself because I have no time to get into the usual lengthy debate. I think the point is clear.
