Back up now - I'm the owner, and a bit of mod_wsgi setup optimization got it running again.

Yeah, there are plenty of counterexamples. Many articles end you up in the following closed loop: Ancient Greek, Greek Language, Indo-European Languages, Language Family. From "Language Family" there are sort of two possibilities: 1. You go to "List of language families", if you count the italicized disambiguation type text as the first link, in which case you're then sent back to "Language Family" and start looping. 2. You ignore the italicized text and click Language, which leads to Human, Taxonomy, Ancient Greek.

Either way, no philosophy.

I'm the creator of the site. (I apologize that it was down for so long today - I had to do some tweaking to handle the Slashdot effect. Hopefully we're out of the woods now, but we'll see.) Would people be interested in the source code? I'd be willing to clean it up and post most or all of it under a permissive license if there's interest.
