wiki knowledge

When somebody announces information or posts it on the internet that they clearly aquired through a wikipedia page, but they say it in a manner where you are supposed to believe that they just know it and are intelligent. However, when called upon it they rationalize how they obtained the information. Usually used by an educated individual who thinks they can pull it off.

Wiki Red

Derived from articles on Wikipedia that are in red because no one has cared to write an article for them.

Person 1: "Samuel L Jackson has been in a lot of movies."

Person 2: "Yeah, but most of them are Wiki Red."

Example 2

Person 1: "Dude, remember Charles from Kindergarten, I saw him at the bar last night, he's a pilot now!"

Person 2: "Charles? Who cares about Wiki Red ass Charles, I just hit the damn lottery!"

Example 3

Person 1: "Meh, did you hear about the inside deal Wall Street execs are making with Lobbyist in the Senate?"

Wiki Wonder

A "Wiki Wonder" is someone who posts on forums or blogs to let everyone know how smart they think they are. They want you to believe they know what they're talking or they have the definitive answer to a topic because they looked it up on wiki. In reality all they know is how to spell "wiki".

Or worse yet, they spew their answer without telling you they looked it up on wiki, as if they are somehow highly intelligent.
Dude I know what I'm talking about...I looked it up on wiki.

That ass hat don't know shit. He's nothing but a Wiki Wonder.
