Can anyone add topics? Mike H 20:48, Jul 17, 2004 (UTC)

Wikipedia is very weak on much of the humanities, compared to the often sterling coverage of popular culture, science, technology, political history and math. I like Kelly what's her face from American Idol, but doesn't anyone think it's weird that each song on her second album is covered in detail, while books that arguably influenced more people aren't detailed at all? It's also pretty crazy that a Star Trek actress (and I like Star Trek, thanks), Roxann Dawson, should be listed as a playwright, when people whose plays have been done hundreds of times are still stuck in "stub" mode. It also seems that some of the women writers are getting short shrift - judging by a random sampling, some articles seem more interested in whether they were married or who they were involved with, than whether they had an impact on other writers. 67.10.131.229 05:18, 13 July 2005 (UTC)[reply]
