FiveThirtyEight has a much more comprehensive take on the same subject: http://fivethirtyeight.com/features/the-most-edited-wikipedi...

In fact, given how FiveThirtyEight describes obtaining the data[1], my guess is that Digg copied the link above.

[1] "we asked the site’s operator, the Wikimedia Foundation, for data on the most-changed entries of English-language Wikipedia in each year."

The most odd-ball of the lot seems to have been edited largely by one person [1].

Interestingly enough I did a cursory google search of Kirk James Miller and nothing really came up that I noticed. I expected him to be an academic or researcher.
I find it very amusing that RuneScape made the top 10 list. As a retired fiend, it reminds me just of how popular it was at that time.
Seems silly to include lists like "Deaths in year XXXX". This is hardly rigorous anyways.
