! This is a 2006 implementation of the game and its questions are extremely out of date; it stopped being updated in 2009 due to a change of the Wikipedia API. A much better daily puzzle version was created in 2024 by Matthew at catfishing.net.

Catfishing is a guessing game built from Wikipedia articles. Given a list of all the categories that an article belongs to, you must guess which article it's describing.

Here's your first one:

United States Army soldiersPeople from IndianapolisPostmodern literature
2007 deathsAmerican adoptive parentsAmerican novelists
1922 birthsAmerican anti Iraq War activistsDeist thinkers

American socialistsAmerican science fiction writersUnitarian Universalists
Members of The American Academy of Arts and LettersUniversity of Chicago alumniAmerican essayists
American military personnel of World War IIAmerican satiristsWorld War II prisoners of war
PostmodernistsAmerican short story writers 
What person or place or thing belongs to all of these categories?
