About this data

This page tracks the lifespan of entries featured in Wikipedia’s 'Did You Know' (DYK) section, revealing how long trivia stays curated before being archived or removed. The data is extracted from the fragmented DYK archive, which spans daily pages and is not systematically tracked elsewhere. By measuring median and 90th percentile lifespans, as well as weekly entry counts, it highlights the ephemeral nature of curated knowledge and the editorial churn behind Wikipedia’s trivia selection process.
