The entry for Indigenous Australian on Wikipedia was one of the most viewed pages during 2014 gaining 4.7million hits on May 24 alone

Popular pages on Wikipedia during 2014 have been revealed with one of the most read entries being 'Indigenous Australian'.

For eight days running starting on May 18, the entry was the most viewed page reaching a peak of 4.7million hits on May 24.

But despite being one of the most read pages on the encyclopedia site last year, it is unclear why so many people worldwide were searching for the term.

The list of last year's most viewed Wikipedia pages has been compiled by website Quartz, who analysed the top viewed page every day of last year.

During the study, they found that most of the top results followed big news events, with the profile of actor Robin Williams being viewed more than 5.1million times on August 12, the day after his death.

The profile for fellow actor Philip Seymour Hoffman was also the top viewed page with 1.7million hits on February 2, the day of his death.
