The premise is to go from one specific Wikipedia page to another specified page, using ONLY the hyperlinks contained therein.
I’ll start:
Go from Displacement Operator
to
Morocco.
Have it with three intermediate links.
My solution:
Displacement operator -> Hermitian conjugate -> Charles Hermite -> French People -> Morocco
Surprisingly enough, I discovered that there is no Wikipedia link from the France article to the Morocco article.
How about a puzzle from Treaty of Fez to Brett Favre .

It is the most destructive hurricane to ever hit Florida in terms of structures damaged or destroyed, and remained the costliest in financial terms until Hurricane Irma surpassed it 25 years later. Andrew was also the strongest landfalling hurricane in the United States in decades and the costliest hurricane to strike anywhere...

A quick sidenote: It’s a fun fact that if you go to a random Wikipedia page, click on the first link in the article that isn’t in italics or inside a parenthesis, and keep going like that for each new link, you’ll always (apart from a few loops or broken links) end up at “philosophy” . Try it, it really does work, and it often takes just a few links.
Anyway, carry on.

Myth is a genre of folklore consisting primarily of narratives that play a fundamental role in a society. For scholars, this is very different from the vernacular usage of the term "myth" that refers to a belief that is not true. Instead, the veracity of a myth is not a defining criterion.
Myths are often endorsed by religious (when they are closely linked to religion or spirituality) and secular authorities. Many societies group their myths, legends, and history together, considering myths ...
Science is a systematic discipline that builds and organises knowledge in the form of testable hypotheses and predictions about the universe. Modern science is typically divided into two or three major branches: the natural sciences (e.g., physics, chemistry, and biology), which study the physical world; and the social sciences (e.g., economics, psychology, and sociology), which study individuals and societies. Applied sciences are disciplines that use scientific knowledge for prac
Cosmology (from Ancient Greek κόσμος (cosmos) 'the universe, the world' and λογία (logia) 'study of') is a branch of physics and metaphysics dealing with the nature of the universe, the cosmos. The term cosmology was first used in English in 1656 in Thomas Blount's Glossographia, with the meaning of "a speaking of the world". In 1731, German philosopher Christian Wolff used the term cosmology in Latin (cosmologia) to denote a branch of metaphysics that deals with the general nature of the ph...
In physical cosmology and astronomy, dark energy is a proposed form of energy that affects the universe on the largest scales. Its primary effect is to drive the accelerating expansion of the universe. It also slows the rate of structure formation. Assuming that the lambda-CDM model of cosmology is correct, dark energy dominates the universe, contributing 68% of the total energy in the present-day observable universe while dark matter and ordinary (baryonic) matter contribute 27% and 5%, re The...
