sp "spefically" -- John of Reading (talk) 19:28, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Fixed, thanks! You're welcome to make such small and obvious corrections yourself (even though more significant changes should normally be avoided after publication), see Wikipedia:Signpost/About. Regards, HaeB (talk) 19:34, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

Sure that's the right diff for Tedder's edits to Chris Hardwick? It seems like this would be more accurate... Tabercil (talk) 23:24, 31 May 2011 (UTC)

I tried the "get to Philosophy" trick on Kevin Bacon and failed. Go figure. Powers ^T 13:30, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Perhaps you didn't capitalize the surname; seems it doesn't work without it. It might be double the amount of links, but it does get there! ;-) -- Mentifisto 12:21, 4 June 2011 (UTC)

No, what 'fixed' it is that someone removed the link to data storage device from the recording article. And I would bet money that was done because of the loop that link created. Any article that led to film or recording, including most actor and musician articles, would end up in that loop. Powers ^T 00:04, 5 June 2011 (UTC)

Kevin Bacon > Golden Globe Award > Hollywood Foreign Press Association > Organization > Social group > Social sciences > List of academic disciplines > Academia > Community > Living > Life > Physical body > Psysics > Natural Science > Science > Knowledge > Fact > Information > Sequence > Mathematics > Quantity > Property (philosophy) > Modern philosophy > Philosophy (23 pages in between)

also, for your consideration:

Pornography > Sexual intercourse > Penis > Vertibrate > Subphylum > Taxonomic rank > Biological classification > Biologist > Scientist > System > Element > Mathematics > Quantity > Property (philosophy) > Modern philosophy > Philosophy (14 pages in between)

Don't know what conclusions to draw from those numbers. Sven Manguard Wha? 03:11, 13 July 2011 (UTC)
