Well that was fun

Thought would try with Michael Rosen, the children's author:

1 - Michael Rosen - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
2 - Communism - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
3 - List of German-language philosophers - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
4 - Kurt Gödel - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
5 - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adolf_Hitler

EDIT: I wonder why "automatically retrieve titles from external links" doesn't work for the Hitler page?
