Interesting premise. It probably makes sense, as the most important topics are related to so many other things, and the more important topics generally just have longer Wikipedia articles. I wondered how you calculated the topic scores - at one point, I thought it was how common the word is in some dataset. But your calculation makes much more sense.
Very innovative.
How did you decide on how many points each topic gets?
I think the game could be improved by giving the user better feedback when the topic is not accepted - the first time i thought the interface had a bug.
