Wikipedia revealed its most popular English articles of the year, as compiled by researcher Andrew West, in a blog post Friday, and nearly all of them relate to the movies, TV shows, and video games that dominated our social media feeds at one point or another.

Endgame’s Wiki page clocked in at 44 million page views for the year, according to the nonprofit online encyclopedia’s post.
Other media phenomenons, some of them infamously polarizing like Game of Thrones and Todd Phillips’ Joker, appeared throughout the list as well.

Though if you’re interested in its most popular pages behind the top 25, West went on to compile the top 5,000, which you can check out here.
