The act of digging through one's garage, storage, closets, etc in search of lost artifacts and or in the process of reducing the amount of 'stuff' collected over the years.
1. We're getting ready to move, so we're going to storage to do a little urban archeology.
2. I ran into Cynthia and had to do a little urban archeology to find her phone number.

Urban Wiktionary is a mix of Urban Dictionary and Wiktionary, taking elements from both.
It would take the definition acceptance and (somewhat) loose moderation of Urban Dictionary.
It would also take the Categorization, Etymology, synonyms, antonyms, and format of Wiktionary.
I see this as a way to highlight words better, as if there will be enough terms about sex and etc, at least we’d have categories to sort of nullify it.

Urban Wiktionary would also help with simply finding words too.
It could divide words into nouns, verbs, adjectives, adverbs, etc.
It would have a better navigation system, sorting into categories and allowing terms with unusual characters (:, ;, ‘) to be found.
It could also divide into languages, seeing as there are many foreign terms on this site.
Seeing that there as many definitions of Urban Dictionary (on Urban Dictionary) saying how much it sucks, maybe it could even provide nonbiased definitions, which all logged in users could make better.
I feel like this would bridge the gap between the “official” words from Wiktionary while still allowing for smaller words that still make sense to be shown off, like in UrbDic.
This may never happen, but screaming into the void at least gets it out there.

This urban sport is a modification of "Catfish Noodling", where one attempts to handfish for catfish that are hiding in cracks and crevices along the bank of a river.
