Following the first link in the main text of an English Wikipedia article, and then repeating the process for subsequent articles, usually leads to the Philosophy article.

I personally enjoy philosophy of physics. I also learned I’m a constructive empiricist when it comes to quantum physics.

You kid, but science is literally a philosophy.

Or is philosophy a science? (Of conscience/the mind)

I'm now curious about the articles that don't—do they lead somewhere else?

They either get stuck in a loop or lead to a dead-end page that doesn't have any outgoing links.

Considering that the first thing is often an explanation of the meaning or something like that... Makes sense. But is also totally irrelevant.

Just tested it with the link itself.. and yes, it gets more and more broader with every click.
