When someone asks you or someone around you about something, and you use Wikipedia to find the answer quickly, so you can tell the asker what it is.
"Hey, does anyone know what the capital of Luxembourg is?"
"Err..." *pulls out phone and quick-wiki's Luxembourg* "The capital is also called Luxembourg."
"Cheers mate. You're so smart."
"Nah, I just quick-wiki'ed it."

When someone intentionally jumps into an online user collaborative encyclopedia to research one thing that blows up into researching multiple subjects.
Brian: Dude, you weren't on the psn last night. Where were you?
Roy: Yeah, I took a wiki dive on "The Fight: Lights out" and ended up reading everything on the video game fighting genre.

Searching wikipedia for a specific subject but clicking on a link within the article and following on through an increasingly tangenital succession of information.
I skipped lunch today because a search for foods containing HDL's led me into a wiki-vortex. I'm still hungry, but now I have a fractal understanding of neuro-science.

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.

"where did you hear that?"
