# Part 2 - Policing the Wikipedia Game
# Part 2 - Wikiracing

Say you're engaging a spot of
[Wikiracing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikiracing) with some friends.
Adapt your program (or write a new one if it's starting here) so instead of
building a graph of internal links in a website you instead make it perform
[Wikiracing](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikiracing)!

You agree the Wikipedia articles you want to start and finish at, and compete
to find the shortest path.

One of your friends exclaims:

> "I've found a way to do it in 6 steps!"
In order to keep to high octane action of the game going, you appoint a referee
for each round that will verify claims like these before the game stops for
people to compare their solutions.

The referee needs to be able to verify these claims fast in order to discount
any bogus claims and keep the game running.

Adapt your program (or write a program, if you've skipped straight to part 2)
to be able to verify these claims (i.e. say if it's possible to go from one
Wikipedia URL to another in the number of steps claimed)... And make it as fast
as possible.
In Wikiracing you agree the Wikipedia articles you want to start and finish at,
and compete to see who can get from the start to the finish first, following
only internal links.
