Wikipedia Scholar 

A person who attempts to demonstrate knowledge obtained by searching on Wikipedia. This person has no legitimate degree from an accredited institution in said subject/topic, but will use the online encyclopedia to prove their point on the topic being discussed.

After reading a ridiculous comment from someone that posted a link:

"Oh look, a Wikipedia Scholar is trying to prove himself again."
"Oh the Wikipedia Scholar thinks be correct, because he thinks he has a good source of information."

Person 1: Wow! Joe Shmoe sure knows a lot about XYZ...
Person 2: If you look it up on Wikipedia it is even in the order XYZ, just another wikipedia scholar; no real knowledge, thoughts or opinions of their own...

or
