Game Time!

Someone gives two articles in Wikipedia, say, chalk and cheese. The next person tries to link from the first one to the second one (In that order) by only clicking on links in that page, then the resulting page and so on. E.g.

(Person 1): Chalk>cheese

(Person 2): In three moves;
                Chalk>champagne region>Chardonnay>Cheese (Under the 'With food' header)


The links you post must say what it says on the page you're linking from, not to ('Champagne Region' rather than 'Champagne (Wine Region)')

You must link them from first to second, not the other way around (If someone says 'Chalk>Cheese' you can't start on Cheese, you must start on Chalk)

People can question the existence of the links if they can't find them.

Let the game commence!


Beetle>Cheesecake



EDIT: Number of moves does not include the starting page, but does include the end one.

Tip: if you don't know what's going on, read the first few posts.
If you still don't know what's going on, ask somebody.
Then, if you still don't know what's going on, don't post.

Hah....This reminds me of 'Jesus and Hitler' where you hit random for an article, and try to get to Jesus or hitler in as few clicks as possible.
