A person who constantly Googles or uses Wikipedia (or other internet resources) to self diagnose their illness based on symptoms they've been experiencing.
Kaley is a Wiki-chondriac. She wakes up with a slight headache after a night of drinking. She immediately sources Wikipedia where she finds that there are several common causes including:
"tension, migraines, eye strain, dehydration, low blood sugar, hyper mastication and sinusitis." She also finds that there are life-threatening conditions such as "meningitis, encephalitis, cerebral aneurysms, extremely high blood pressure, and brain tumors" associated with headaches. She quickly jumps to the conclusion that she's dying of a brain tumor and needs medical assistance rather than a Tylenol and some water for what is a really a bad hangover.

Get the wikipedia mug.Wikiality is a term first used on the news program "The Colbert Report" by Stephen Colbert, on Monday, July 31, 2006. Wikiality may be defined as: A reality where, if enough people agree with a notion, it becomes the truth. It is generally believed to be a portmanteau of the words "Wikipedia" and "reality".
Wikiality is an interesting concept derived from the theory of cultural relativity. It is based on the grounds of popular truth. If something is written on Wikipedia, then it is accepted on truth. Therefore, it can be assumed that everything on Wikipedia is the truth. However, anyone can edit Wikipedia. In such case, anyone can edit the truth (in theory).
