From XXX to Philosophy...a Wikkipedia Quest (1 Viewer)

We have a winner.

It took 43 clicks to get from "anal sex" to "philosophy."

It took some nice turns from biology to astronomical bodies to natural science and then on to philosophy.

 
ends in loop: Homebrew, homebrewing, brewing, beer, alcoholic beverage, drink, liquid, one of four fundamenatl states of matter, forces between particles, solids, one of four fundamental states of matter...

got to knowledge in 8.

I really thought anal sex would have been a lot more fun. :kicksrock:

People getting stuck on "four fundamental states of matter" aren't scrolling up to the top of the page for the first word, instead they're going from the jump-to point.

Ah....excellent point.

Also, can someone verify or dispute anal sex? I'm having trouble with anal sex at work.

:mellow:

Might have been a better way to phrase that...

34 to get from parasailing to philosophy.
Really? I'm counting 8:

parasailing - kite types - kite - aircraft - flight - physical body - physics - natural philosophy - philosophy

Maybe you clicked on a link in the "this article needs citations for verification" box?

 
French language does not lead to philosophy and is not a loop. :brush:
French language -Romance languages - Vulgar Latin - Sociolect - Dialect - Linguistics - Science - Knowledge - Fact - Proof (truth) - Necessity and sufficiency - Logic - Reason - Consciousness - Subjectivity - Philosophy
Don't think we're supposed to use See Also to get from Sociolect to Dialect
I would think we should, but also this one is flawed. Sociolect actually should link to "Dialect" but for some reason the hotlink has not been activated. I would say this is not a loop since technically the see also is part of the article. I bet you'd be hard pressed to find many articles where the first link is all the way down to the see also.

On another topic, I think mobile version might be different than full version. I'd think full version would be the preferred version for this worthy endeavor.

eta: "worthy"

Jesse Pinkman led to a primate-prosimian loop
I thought so too but we were both missing a link that looks like it's in parenthesis (but on closer inspection, isn't):

21 clicks: primate - mammal - clade - tree of life - Charles Darwin - FRS - learned society - organization - social - organisms - biology - natural science - science - knowledge - facts - proven - sufficient - logic - reasoning - consciously - subjectivity - philosophy

Primate...it's no Alfred Molina. ;)

 
I think I did this right.

This is the current record, at 29 clicks. :thumbup:

 
15 Click from Kevin Bacon to Philosophy. So much for the 6 Degrees of Separation.

 
Persian doesn't do this.

When I click on "liquid"...the first linked word(s) is "four fundamental states of matter". The only other linked word before that is "For other uses see Liquid (disambiguation)." But its in italics. I don't see anything else on the top of the page.

Yes, but after clicking on "four fundamental states of matter" the first word at top to click on next is "physics" - have to go to top of that page.

Thanks. Looks like they changed it...that page looks different from when I tried originally.

Clayface-->DC Comics-->American Comic Books-->Periodical-->Newspaper-->Periodical Literature--->Newspaper-->Periodical Literature...
