Wikipedia, unsurprisingly, has a page on this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Getting_to_Philosoph...
Which, ironically, doesn't work for that page. You end up in a loop rather than getting to philosophy.

It worked for me? Either something changed in the past five minutes or one of us messed up. I did the first link as the article mentions, not the second. That could also be the issue.
At "Branches of science" it links back to "Formal science".
Keep in mind, you need to click on "first non-parenthesized, non-italicized link" in the article text itself.

#85This is fun, we used to do something like this in high school called Five Clicks to Jesus, which is exactly what it sounds like. I find this particular version a bit tedious because you aren't allowed to Find on a page. What good is having a timer if I can't go fast? Why punish me twice for reaching a dead end page by making me read the entire thing to discover that I need to go back?

Re: Wikipedia Speedruns
#89You have to guess what the title of the page is, with most of the words redacted. They are filled in as you guess.
Re: Wikipedia Speedruns
#90So apparently it tracks pressing "CTRL+F", but it you select "find in page" from the menu in your browser that's fine. I guess there's no way for a website to track that anyway.
