Best regards,

My strategy:
1) If the article is somehow related to Hitler, Germany, Holocaust, Nazism, Fascism, or Judaism do a search for "Hitler" or look for words that might bring you closer to your goal. 2) If the article is in no way related to Hitler, try and get from it to an article on Germany (through links to other European countries possibly). Or, if the article mentions politics, try to get to some page that could be related to Nazism or Fascism. 3) Repeat until you reach Adolf Hitler. 
Attempt 1:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chen%C3%B4ves http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germany http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler Attempt 2: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cabinda_Province http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/France http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Germany http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler lol ^ ^ ^ ^ Attempt 3 (tried not to take the country-to-country route) : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mario_Trujillo_Garc%C3%ADa http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mexico http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Pre..._of_Mexico http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/L%C3%A1zaro_C%C3%A1rdenas http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1940 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler
I think the country route is the best one. Using your last example, I got to Hitler in 4 moves...again.

I used to play a game like this at my last job. We'd pick two pages and see who could get from A to B in less pages. There was also a "no countries allowed" variant that made it a little more interesting.

Without countries:
1 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neoism 2 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_As...nst_Racism 3 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-fascist 4 http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler

This one was more of a challenge:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonheiden http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Population_density http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_rel...opulations http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christianity http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zwingli http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Theology_of...ch_Zwingli http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Martin_Luther http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_So...kers_Party http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler

This is annoying. All I want to do right now is write a computer program that crawls a random article on Wikipedia in search of Hitler...
I guess creating scripts that cheat is good practice, eh?
And that's, good practice for scripting, not cheating, lol. Evf |
