wikiality 

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).

"We should apply these principles to all information. All we need to do is convince a majority of people that some factoid is true." - Stephen Colbert, The Colbert Report
"As usual, folks, the Bush administration is on the cutting edge of information management." - Stephen Colbert, The Colbert Report
"What we're doing is bringing democracy to knowledge." - Stephen Colbert, The Colbert Report

wikiality 

Reality as determined by general consensus rather than cold hard facts. If enough people say it is true, then it is true.
The population of elephants in Africa has tripled in the past six months. Colbert and all Heroes know this to be true, despite the absence of facts to back up this opinion. "Vandalizing" the Wikipedia entry to reflect this wikiality is a perfectly valid thing to do.

Wikilies 

What Wikipedia tells you that isn't true.
When looking up Chemtrails I found another one of their Wikilies in Wikipedia; they say "The United States Air Force maintains that the Chemtrail theory is a hoax which has been investigated and refuted by many established and accredited universities, scientific organizations, and major media publications", quoting the 'Contrail Facts' publication by the military which clearly defines contrails as chemtrails.

Surf Dracula Syndrome 

A phenomenon in film/television series, most notably streaming series, where the main premise is drawn out to such a point that it takes an entire season or more to get the parts of the series the audience is actually interested in seeing.

For example, if a series is titled "Surf Dracula," a majority of viewers would tune in expecting to see Dracula surfing by the first or second episode. However, the entire first season would instead be tedious padding and backstory before finally ending with Dracula surfing in the last five minutes of the season finale.
I watched "Smallville" on Netflix the other day. Dude, it was ten seasons of filler before he finally flew! Major Surf Dracula Syndrome!
