I like that "heat-to-light ratio" statistic - that might make for an interesting follow-up. Though I suspect most of the high scorers will be Israel-Palestine-related, or possibly Ireland- or Scientology-related, as opposed to more generally known celebrities...
Somey, I just browsed through the top 76 articles for the "heat-to-light ratio", since that's how many have had more talk page edits (ever) than June 2011 page views.
The only names that I recognized from my own personal awareness were:
9. William Connolley
10. Prem Rawat
12. Rosalind Picard
15. Matt Sanchez
28. Gary Weiss
34. Chip Berlet
And, clearly the
only reason I'm familiar with even those names is because I read Wikipedia Review.
I suppose because this ratio is defined in part by a "low" article page-view count, it stands to reason that most of the top ratios will be relatively unknown people. In fact, as I plowed down the list, the first person to break 3,000 June 2011 page views was:
295. Joe the Plumber
And later...
311. Juan Cole
312. Ward Churchill
536. Michael E. Mann
552. Richard Lindzen
635. Steven E. Jones
674. Lyndon LaRouche
I should note here that I set as parameters for the article search that there were more than 30 June 2011 page views of the article, and that there have ever been at least 10 Talk page comments.
