Possibly the new Googlewhacking! One person looks at a Wikipedia entry that's in several categories and reads them off. The other person has to guess the person, place, or thing. Example:
Articles with large trivia sections | English actors | English film actors | English stage actors | English Americans | English American actors | Best Actor Academy Award nominees | Bisexual actors | People from Bristol | Naturalized citizens of the United States | 1904 births | 1986 deaths | People known by pseudonyms | Hollywood Walk of Fame
I think I'd have to hear about eight of those to correctly guess.
A few other good candidates: here, here, here, here, and here.

As promised, a comment.If one of the categories is the actual name of the page (eg. "Thomas Jefferson", you can omit that one.

Also you can play by reading a sentence from the entry itself, which was how I thought this game would work when you were first talking about it.
