Curious notability ranking. Obama is the No.1 ranking person and Trump the No. 2, Leonardo Da Vinci is No. 3.

Also was surprised to find that Audrey Hepburn is from Belgium (rank 158)...

I was also curious about how the "notability ranking" is calculated. Just looking at the American West:

Demi Lovato: 226.5

Demi Moore: 825, Tommy Lee Jones: 829, Dennis Hopper: 977.5, Woody Harrelson: 1319

Wait, what? Who the heck is Demi Lovato? I never even heard of her until I browsed her Wikipedia page.
