Each year, Wikipedia reports which articles had the most views. Usually, the people with the most popular articles are politicians/royalty, athletes, or Elon Musk. But sometimes someone else gets on the list, and I think that's a fun thing to try to predict!

This question will resolve based on Wikipedia's official reporting of the most read articles in 2024. It will resolve to the individual human with the most popular article who is not primarily a politician/royal/athlete/Elon Musk.

In 2023 this was J. Robert Oppenheimer, followed by Taylor Swift and Matthew Perry.

In 2022 this was Jeffrey Dahmer, followed by Amber Heard and Johnny Depp.

In 2021 this was DMX, followed by Richard Ramirez and Dwayne Johnson.

In 2020 this was Sushant Singh Rajput, followed by Chadwick Boseman and Jeffrey Epstein.

In 2019 this was Ted Bundy, followed by Freddie Mercury and Billie Eilish.

In 2018 this was Freddie Mercury, followed by Stephen Hawking and Cardi B
