WikiSnob

A snob who trolls facebook comments for any reference to Wikipedia as a source, always to denounce any fact, however true it might be, merely because it has been sourced to Wikipedia, ignoring the fact that the supercomputer Watson, which cannot be beaten by humans on the television show "Jeopardy," uses Wikipedia, as well as other internet resources, to destroy its human challengers

Don: Don't cite the wikipedia in Dr. Patterson's class. He's such a wiki-snob that he will trash everything you have to say.

Ron: He's such a crappy teacher that the only way they can get anyone to sign up for his classes is to put "to be announced" on the instructor line of the schedule.
