Rogue (as in the original Roguelike) does not link through that page on its way through, interestingly. (used only the games I could find that used roguelike as the first link on the roguelike branch)

It's known as the Oppai-Kaiju effect. The islands of Japan generate a sort anti-gravity field, which allows breasts to behave as if in microgravity. It's also what allows Godzilla and friends to become 50 stories tall, and lets ninjas run up the side of a skyscraper.

I went on there and fixed it. Personally.

That made my day. Thank you.

I don't think the Wikipedia people liked it, though. XD

Yes... within not five minutes I see a message saying something like "Welcome to wikipedia! We have changed the edits you made to this article because we feel yours were not constructive." They review edits fast. It still works for the Xefer now though, so it's good enough for me.

Quote from: Annoying High School Teachers
Blah, blah, blah, you can't use dat dere Wikipedia because anyone can edit it and anyone can go and make you do anything with it so we'll never even consider it ever again even if Oxford themselves let students use Wikipedia.

Please. Getting an edit on Wikipedia to actually stick is a goddamn achievement. I don't know how most of these people spend their days, but it seems like there are dozens if not hundreds of people camping the recent edits log 24/7. Somehow.

I'm pretty sure that there are hundreds of people camping the edit logs 24/7. When you consider the amount of people using (and editing) Wikipedia, it's not unlikely at all. Perhaps even thousands would be more accurate.

Lol, i went back and fixed it again in a way unlikely to be reversed.

Skyrim is a philosophy based video game. Insomuch as hitting things with swords is a philosophy.

I got the same problem with Starcraft 2.  And citadel 2 popped up as a random search just a little before it, leading to computer games, which was also the only thing I had linking to panpsychism.

Also, I like that anything that leads to Human settlement leads to The Beatles.

I managed to get 39 (not including Rage/Philosophy) by inputting Rage. It seems Rage goes through psychology, into your childhood, routes into the government pages, plays in politics, and lands in Philosophy through philosophy of mathematics.

Hm, have you considered murder?  It's either that or letting it go.
