wikigroan

Something you do when you compare two Wikipedia articles for length and depth of content. The articles should be related in some way, while one is only of use to a fraction of the population.

I was reading the Wikipedia article for the Civil War, and the article for Star Wars, and then I wikigroaned.

Wikipedia Rathole

The act of losing between 45-120 minutes while performing click-throughs from the initial Wikipedia page you were interested in.... often leading you to knowledge that has no relationship what-so-ever to your original search.

Man, I was lost 2 hours and missed a meeting because I went down a Wikipedia Rathole. However, I do now know that Richie Sambora is was born in Woodbridge, NJ.

NOTE: Original search was snow fall amounts in the NE.

Wikipedia Game

The inevitable result of trying to do serious research on wikipedia. Consists of clicking on random links in articles until you get as far away from the original topic as possible. The results must then reported to the closest person you know.

I was researching Warren Buffet for business class. Sure enough, I got into a session of the wikipedia game, and 9 pages later, I was on Louis the XIV of France.

Wiki-screwed

A state of being in which a person relied on information found on wikipedia, generally in a scholarly context, then later, after having already put effort into something using this information, found out that the information was incorrect, and therefore was forced to redo that work.

Rebecca: Oh no! I just based these 37 intricate drawings of DNA molecules on information I found on wikipedia, and it turns out they're all wrong! I'm going to have to redo every single one!
Erica: You just got wiki-screwed.
