What does Meow, Linky, Closer mean?
'Meow' is Category based - it picks an article with the following process:
1. Pick a non-hidden category of the current page at random 2. Pick an article in that category at random 3. Go to that picked article
'Linky' is simpler:
1. Pick a random outgoing wikilink of the current page 2. Go to that picked wikilink
'Closer' is slighlty more complex, and works only when you have used 'Linky' at least once:
1. Make an intersection of all links that were present both in *this* article and the previous article 2. Pick a link out of the intersection at random 3. Go to that link.
Which one do you think gives you the best 'related to the current article, but slightly random' results?
