Someone who gives up their free time to help build an enormously useful internet project called Wikipedia that provides loads and loads free information about any topic you could think of, accessible to everyone who has internet access. Wikipedians are often critised for not having a life by trolls who copy their work when they're supposed to write about something.

The most highly-evolved form of pseudo-intellectual, correcting typos and writing about anime from their lofty ivory towers. Despite their claims to the contrary Wikipedians are an elitist cabal of pompous undergraduates, anime nuts and anal-retentives who derive meaning in their otherwise dull lives from incessantly editing and updating Wikipedia. All of the above can be confirmed by reading their biographical "user pages," where they display pedantic lists of their various heart-sinkingly inane interests in the same way a psychotic nutcase living in an attic would display shrunken heads.
Any changes to an article with which the Wikipedians disagree will throw them into confusion and panic, and it will be debated endlessly by them in their attempts to dissect and scrutinize every minutiae of human existence, no matter how worthless or trivial. This further strengthens their delusion that Wikipedia is an actual encyclopedia with any educational worth rather than a glorified video-gaming rumour mill.

A Wikipedian is the kind of person who sees a typo in an unthinkably obscure Wikipedia article at 3 in the morning, corrects it and feels really proud of himself. Console yourself with the fact that at least you're not like them.
Unless you are one of them, in which case you should probably get back to Wikipedia to write an article listing anime characters with "z" in their names or whatever the hell it is you people like to do.

Religion naming Wikipedia as God, because it knows all important knowledge, and Myspace as Jesus, for it has over 120 million followers in several countries. Wikipedists are also known as Wikipedians and follow the basic wikipedian philosophy of Inclusionism, Exclusionism and Deletionism. Being a part of this religion one will often experience wikigasms as wikipedia is one erotic beast.
Guy1: Dude, all you do is edit wikipedia and myspace.
Guy2: I know, i am in love with them, but i don't have time for a girlfriend.
Guy1: Then join wikipedianism; i get a wikigasm like every five minutes, its amazing! Plus there's so much to learn from wikipedia.

The Wikipedian Loop occurs when the use of Wikipedia to research a particular subject leads to an infinite loop of addiction.
This addiction is characterised by staring transfixed at Wikipedia pages for hours at a time and usually results in varying levels of frustration and distress at the impossibility of ever successfully reading through all the Wikipedia pages currently open without the urge to open even more to linked subjects and thus continue the Loop.
At its climax an infinite number of screens may be open (allowing for your computers capabilities).

Someone who keeps clicking the "Random article" button on wikipedia in the hope of finding something vaguely funny or interesting.
The first 10 times he clicked random article he could still communicate, but now he doesn't respond to any sort of stimulation. It's no use, he's a Wikipedian Zombie now.
