Get the absolutely wika mug.Is a cyber-medical condition in which a Wikipedia surfer follows too long a string of links when researching a topic, and is unable to return to the main topic of research. Symptoms include conceptual numbness and stream of thought weakness. Another name for the syndrome is 'Blunderline Disease'
I was researching the causes of the American Civil War but in trying to understand who Jefferson Davis was and what occurred in the presidential election of 1860 I suffered a bad case of Wikarpal Tunnel Syndrome and ended up at a page describing Neo-Latin, forgetting what exactly I was doing on the computer.

Get the Wikarpal Tunnel Syndrome mug.Wiki demons are individuals that have decided to posess a given wiki page, and valiantly battle all attempts to change their edits to the page, regardless of how logical or intelligent the change may be.
The defining characteristic that sets wikidemons apart is the fact that their ego drives their interest in the pages they infest, rather than an actual concern for scolarly pursuits.
Like most generic demons, they liken themselves unto gods above the mere mortals that dare enter their self-proclaimed domain.
This does not mean they have any special or insightful knowledge of the page, but that they merely demand that all other beings must be inferior in their understanding of the posessed pages, as the wikidemon's ego can allow no peers to their self-imagined wisdom.
The wikidemons can be most easily spotted by their domination of article history as perpetually reverting any changes that dare go against their self-worshipped decision of what the page should be, and by their complete domination of an article's talk page, often to the point of responding not only to multiple other people who question their ultimate control of the page, but hapless passers by and even themselves.
There are, at this time, no known ways to truly combat, vanquish, slay, banish, or otherwise exorcise wikidemons from their adopted domains.
Until such a method is devised, wikis will forever remain unreliable sources, as any given wikidemon manifestation completely destroys the legitimacy of the page and entire wiki it infests.

Joe: Why does this page claim satan invented ice cream? I'll remove that reference.
Wikidemon: WHO DARES DISTURB MY SLUMBER? Someone removed my reference to satan inventing icecream? I shall revert this fool's change, and then write 11 paragraphs on the talk page explaining why he's a moron for doubting my logic. It will look nice next to my other 300 paragraphs. I should put it as a reply to myself, since he didn't post to the talk page about why he removed it!

Get the wakadoodle mug.A wikidick is the token douchebag know-it-all posting all over whatever thread you may be viewing. This person loves to correct everything you say down to minute grammar.
Although commonly mistaken for a troll, or a grammar nazi, you'll be happy to know there is now a distinct difference.
A wikidick is someone who achieves superficial satisfaction by stalking threads and correcting any or all posters by way of leeching the popular site "wikipedia."

Get the Wikidick mug.Similar to google drift, but using the search on Wikipedia. It is actually far easier to get much farther off topic when wikidrifting, becuase of the links attached to every word in a Wikipedia entry that has it's own entry.
One day I was trying to find out how to correctly spell "the Fonz" so I looked him up and somehow wikidrifted to the entry for "portmanteau."
