Okay, here's how it works: you go to wikipedia and click "random article."

then the first link that you see that's not in parenthesis or above the main article, you click on. keep doing this, and it will eventually bring you to "philosophy." try to keep track of how many clicks it was and post the article and # of clicks in this thread.

i get 2002 Mutua Madrileña Masters Madrid – Singles.

it took me 26 clicks to get to "Philosophy."
 
I hit random, and I got Philosophy.

I win.


I then clicked random page and got Edison Fonseca.
3 clicks.
 
Gabriel Zubeir Wako - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

STEPS:

28 O-O

Took me 160 clicks. . . I'm exhausted. . .

Well, look at that. I shared the last 10 clicks with Transform. How nice.
 
Go to wikipedia, think of a starting page and an ending page. Get from the starting page to the ending page by only clicking links. If you cheat, may the fleas of a thousand camels infest your armpits. Tell me how you do!
 
I think this would be better if some starts with a page and then the next user finds another Wikipedia page only by clicking a link on the page mentioned in the previous post and gives a hyperlink to it in the user's post and then this process continues infinitely. I will start with the Wikipedia page of Pokémon.
