wikipediac

Someone who has a limited knowledge on a vast spectrum of
subjects, mainly obtained by hours of surfing Wikipedia.
This person usually retains only one or two key footnotes on
any particular subject, yet they consider themselves "smart".
Debbie: "Ughhhhh! Here comes Dave, the walking wikipediac.
I wonder what he's going to bore us with this time..."

Dave: "Did you know that state highway 143 near Salina, Ks
uses 3 different types of pavement in its 4.6 miles?"

Cherie: "Oh, Dave, you're such a wikipediac!"

Wikipedia Hole

Going on to Wikipedia to look something up, then unexpectedly being sucked into a seemingly endless series of link clicking to end up in a completely different part of wikipedia than you ever meant to go to.
I just went to Wikipedia a high school in Bangladesh, and I ended up on an article about Cottage Cheese.

Dang, looks like you fell into a Wikipedia Hole.

Wikipedian Loop

The Wikipedian Loop occurs when the use of Wikipedia to research a particular subject leads to an infinite loop of addiction.

This addiction is characterised by staring transfixed at Wikipedia pages for hours at a time and usually results in varying levels of frustration and distress at the impossibility of ever successfully reading through all the Wikipedia pages currently open without the urge to open even more to linked subjects and thus continue the Loop.

At its climax an infinite number of screens may be open (allowing for your computers capabilities).

I got sucked into a Wikipedian Loop man, I was there for like 5 hours, I started on 'Smallpox' and ended up in 'History of Adidas'...I had 26 screens open...luckily the computer crashed or I'd still be there now...

Hitler Wikipedia Game

A game with the object of reaching Hitler's Wikipedia page by clicking on "Random Article", then clicking links in that article to get to other articles, until eventually you can find a link to Adolf Hitler's page. There are rules against using the "find on this page" option in your browser, and there is sometimes a time limit on how long you can spend on each page. Your score is determined by your number of clicks before clicking on Hitler's page. If you reach Hitler's page by clicking on "Random Article", you win the game forever and are probably Jesus.
me: Yo, this computer class is so boring, lets play that Hitler Wikipedia game.
you: okay...*click*...OH MY GOD HITLERS PAGE CAME UP WHEN I CLICKED RANDOM ARTICLE!!!
me: HOLY JESUS!!!!!!!!!
