Redactle

I have a new obsession. I love puzzles, and I blame my puzzle-loving sister for introducing me to Redactle. It presents a Wikipedia article with most of the main words redacted. You then have to guess the words which give you enough of a hint to either guess the subject, or search Wikipedia to find the correct article. Sometimes it is extremely difficult, if it is about a complex mathematical or scientific topics. Sometimes it is easier (for me) if it is geographic, or musical, or even historical or political, though the latter two items can cover quite obscure subject matter. The topics range enormously. But occasionally, I can guess the topic without searching for it. This rare occurrence is a true delight!
