The act of coursing through wikipedia by clicking on the blue internal links repeatedly, generally following where one's whims will take them and not necessarily in any particular pattern. The activity can last from mere seconds to consuming one's entire day.

Get the Wikipedi-duh mug.A term to describe an individual who initially accesses Wikipedia for reference purposes, but after navigating through interesting wiki links finds themselves minus half a day and plus a growing collection of Wikipedia windows; each spanning vastly different topics.
John: I was using Wikipedia to find info on a band I like; next thing I knew it was four hours later and I had 30 Wikipedia windows open.
Jane: You're such a wikipedestrian.
John: This is never going to catch on.
Jane: That's because you're not selling it, 'find info on a band'? Please, that sounds so fake.

Get the wikipedestrian mug.The name of the best person you could run into in your life. He’s normally tall, with blonde hair and green eyes. He’s very blunt to people he doesn’t know or like but after a while you get to see what an amazing person he is. He’s so kind and wonderful, you can run to him with any problem and he’d make you feel better in a second. He is the most wonderful friend and is usually a “gang leader”. His friends look up to him and look for his approval because they think so highly of him. His girlfriend loves him so much and she’s the luckiest girl to have him. Honestly if you find a Wiktor in your life never let go of him.

Get the wiki-wasting time mug.Using Wikipedia to unearth tidbits of knowledge for the purpose of bringing them up in conversation, in a despondent effort to make oneself seem smarter.
Typical subjects of wikifarming include theoretical physics, trivia from sitcoms, basic psychology, the works of Nostradamus, Shakespeare's tragedies, statistics from practically any organized sport (most often football or baseball), the Renaissance, and pretty much anything that could make one appear more knowledgeable in front of the right people. Usually fails.

A. "I was doing some research last night, and I found out that any four-dimensional object in four-dimensional space will cast a three-dimensional shadow. Turns out, most physicists agree that little, if anything, can be gained scientifically from assuming the fourth dimension to be time, but rather as another spatial axis, which is how..."

Get the wikifarming mug.A game that is played on the website Wikipedia.org. In this game, two or more people go from one Wikipedia page to the other by clicking on the blue highlighted words. The starting and finishing pages are determined by either clicking on the random page option or simply by choosing pages in advance. The winner is determined either by who gets to the finishing page in the shortest amount of time, or by who gets there with the fewest clicks. If one computer is faster or slower than the other, it is more reasonable to decide the winner by number of clicks. You cannot use search or the toolbox list of links. You can only go back if the page hasnt fully loaded or if it is a dead end. It is a good game to play when you are supposed to be working.
Jeff got from Willy Wonka to Optimus prime in only seven clicks! Now that is impressive!
