You now get from Philosophy to Science in fewer than 10 clicks.
I saw capoeira mentioned in another thread, so I followed the path:
capoeira, Brazil, South America, continent, landmass, landform, earth science, science, knowledge, fact, information, finite set, mathematics, quantity, property, modern philosophy, philosophy (so 16 clicks).
This doesn’t appear to match with what other posters mentioned above. People must still be messing with the links.
No, I’m not, but it looks like it’s been changed again.
It took me 33 clicks to get from “Hangover” (movie) to philosophy
I tried the last thing I looked up on Wiki, which happened to be “Liberty Ship”. I got this:
Liberty Ship
Cargo Ship
Ship
Bouyant (auto-redirects to bouyancy)
Bouyancy
Physics
Natural science
Science
Knowledge
Facts
Information
Sequence
Mathematics
Quantity
Property_(philosophy)
Modern philosophy
Philosophy
So we had a bit of detour into the math / info vortex but still got spit out into the pure transcendent Form of Philosophy after just 16 or 17 steps from a WWII boat.
See, we both hit the same path for a bit, had a change, and then they came back together. Constant updates I guess!
(my middle part: science, knowledge, fact, information, finite set, mathematics, quantity)
(yours: Science, Knowledge, Facts, Information, Sequence, Mathematics, Quantity)
We had a little play with this over here.
I checked the history on the “Information” page (where our two paths diverge) and it’s been revised dozens of times in the last couple of days in response to the xkcd comic & folks like us clicking around.
My gosh, it’s learning. And reacting to the larger world. Maybe … it’s becoming sentient!!!
