Big-hitters
[edit]A sample of lists which I think would attract huge hit counts on the Main Page. Selections in the section above are not included here. Many of these lists' status as big-hitters depends largely on being posted at an appropriate time. For instance, the first three lists are probably best posted during a UK general election, solar eclipse and category five hurricane respectively.
- UK Prime Ministers
- Solar eclipses in the 21st century
- Category 5 Atantic hurricanes
- Category 5 Pacific hurricanes
- List of United States hurricanes
- Pre-Stonewall LGBT actions in the US
- Any of the Nobel Laureates lists (selected according to who is prominent that year)
- James Bond novels and stories
- US states and territories by population
- Longest US rivers
- GTA voice actors (coinciding with GTA V)
- Michael Jackson videography
- Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
- Anything to do with The Simpsons
- Tallest buildings in NYC
I have omitted numerous top-drawer sporting events in the interests of saving space. At a glance we have yet to run any of the tennis majors, any wresting event, the world series of poker, the Stanley Cup or IIHF world championship (hockey), Formula One WDC or WCC, any of the golf majors, cricket world cup, rugby tri-nations, Canadian football's grey cup, NBA champions (basketball), World Series (baseball), Champions League or FIFA World Cup (football) or Super Bowl Champions (American football). Not to mention numerous others that would get good figures at the right times.
