six degrees of wikipedia

The theory that any two subjects on the wikipedia are connected in some way by clicking on the links of the articles.

An example of the six degrees of wikipedia would be something like going from Kevin Bacon to Entertainment Weekly to Sean Connery etc, etc.

Wikipedia Trap

Failing to accomplish any significant reading on Wikipedia due to following related links, perusing only the intro to each article, and in doing so, straying far from the original topic.

I logged on to Wikipedia and searched credit default swaps. Ten minutes later I was reading about bisexuality in the 1800s. Hate the wikipedia trap.

Wikipedia

The best argument against democracy.

Wikipedia is full of edit wars, elitist admins, and non-peer reviewed information.
