Wikigroaning

A game where two similarly named or themed Wikipedia articles are compared for length - one serious, and one more popular culture-oriented. Generally, the pop-culture article will win, due to its more rabid audience.

Wikipedia Theory

The theory that all Wikipedia pages are somehow connected to others by links, and that you can get from one to another just by clicking links on each one.

I used the Wikipedia Theory to click my way from the article about unicorns to the one about the Apple iPad.

Wikibender

Noun: An instance where you check something on Wikipedia, and get lost in clicking on other links. Usually it lasts for an hour, but can go all day. A very good way to soak your brain with useless, random knowledge.

I wanted to see where Duran Duran was from, and then I read the page on platinum, Cheerios, space food, Nelson Mandela, black holes, the gold standard, and human physical attractiveness. It was one hell of a wikibender.

Wikipedia Attack

Going to Wikipedia with the intention of quickly looking up some facts or background on a given topic or person and getting sucked into article after article with each article getting farther away from the topic you originally looked up. A typical Wikipedia attack will last at least 30-45 minutes.

"I'm late because I wanted to double check Whoppi Goldberg's birthday but I had a Wikipedia attack and by the time you called me to see why I was late I was reading about UPS."
