    Fun fact: Since “Philosophy” is part of a loop itself, you could say the same thing about any of the 11 element of that loop, including “Three-dimensional space”

      I thought the first link in philosophy was philosophy itself.

      Edit: I brainfarted while writing. What I meant is “I thought it would be even more interesting if the first link in philosophy was philosophy itself”.

        Do you mean this part? I don’t think that’s part of the article. From my understanding, the parentheses isn’t counted either.

            I see. I think wikipedia either forbids links to itself or at least it is against every convention

                And I think a word is never twice linked but only the first time it appears. So if “clicking” will occur a second time, it won’t be clickable
