Wikipedigree 

A degree earned by reading about something on Wikipedia, thus confirming one's status as an expert on the subject.

I have a Wikipedigree in over five subjects, including The Boston Tea Party, Lance Armstrong, the Tyrannosaurus Rex, Marijuana Cultivation, and Frankincense.

Wikipidiot 

Someone who will believe ANYTHING they read on Wikipedia, never considering the fact that ANYONE can edit it and articles can be sabotaged or based on false information.

Creating your own Wikipedia entry is an effective tool for political debate online, as there are plenty of Wikipidiots out there who will believe anything they read on there.

wikipodium 

Refers to the false feeling of superiority one gets from correcting someone else by looking something up online, despite the fact the person making the correction did not actually know the answer prior to looking it up. Especially applicable during board games involving trivia.

The correction must be delivered smugly as the term does not apply to genuine attempts to share accurate information.

A: "What is the largest country?"
B: "China."
A: "That's not the right answer."
A: "Well, what is it then?"
(A looks up the answer on a smart phone.)
A: Smugly replies, "It's Russia."
B: "Get off your wikipodium, you didn't know either."

wikipoodia 

When you take a shit and go down a Wikipedia wormhole, emerging with vast quantities of knowledge.

wikipedian

The most highly-evolved form of pseudo-intellectual, correcting typos and writing about anime from their lofty ivory towers. Despite their claims to the contrary Wikipedians are an elitist cabal of pompous undergraduates, anime nuts and anal-retentives who derive meaning in their otherwise dull lives from incessantly editing and updating Wikipedia. All of the above can be confirmed by reading their biographical "user pages," where they display pedantic lists of their various heart-sinkingly inane interests in the same way a psychotic nutcase living in an attic would display shrunken heads.

Any changes to an article with which the Wikipedians disagree will throw them into confusion and panic, and it will be debated endlessly by them in their attempts to dissect and scrutinize every minutiae of human existence, no matter how worthless or trivial. This further strengthens their delusion that Wikipedia is an actual encyclopedia with any educational worth rather than a glorified video-gaming rumour mill.

A Wikipedian is the kind of person who sees a typo in an unthinkably obscure Wikipedia article at 3 in the morning, corrects it and feels really proud of himself. Console yourself with the fact that at least you're not like them.

Unless you are one of them, in which case you should probably get back to Wikipedia to write an article listing anime characters with "z" in their names or whatever the hell it is you people like to do.
