W/Ranker

about this project

Every day, five Wikipedia articles. Your job is to put them in order by pageviews — most-visited to least. The articles are pulled from Wikipedia's own Vital Articles list, so they're always at least vaguely recognizable, never total trivia-night obscurities.

There's a scoring system baked into how articles get picked each day so the puzzle stays fair — not five household names against one nobody-heard-of, and not five equally obscure ones either. It's a small daily ritual, one puzzle, no scrolling feed, no account required to play.

the pitch

• One new puzzle a day, five articles pulled from Wikipedia Vital Articles (Level 4)
• A scoring system that balances each day's picks so the ranking is never a coin flip
• Auto-posts results to Bluesky every day via a GitHub Actions pipeline
