Hello Everyone,
Michael and I created some social for this WikiWars story.
EXPLANATION:
WikiWars is a game where two people start on one Wikipedia article and try to navigate to another by only clicking on hyperlinks.
For example: Try to get from the en:Bread Wikipedia article to the en:Kim Kardashian Wikipedia article by only using one tab, clicking hyperlinks within Wikipedia articles, using command F, and command [/] (page back/page forward). Players may not use multiple tabs or the side bar for Wikipedia; only clicking through hyperlinks on articles.
