Wikipedia vandalism is an act of course where the user will add an irrelevant comment, remove all the text, replacing the text, adding links etc, which have nothing to do with the original article.
Person 1: Why the fuck are there Mario links on the fucking Sonic page on Wikipedia?
Person 2: Some faggot did Wikipedia Vandalism again.
n. A hypothetical future version of Urban Dictionary in which it is innundated by entries that are not so much definitions of words as they are extended, elborate, and baffling encyclopedia-style entries on pointless minutae (see wikipedia).
"Entries on characters from Stargate SG1? When did this turn into Urban Wikipedia?"
"Who the fuck keeps submitting these tracklistings of The Who albums? This is Urban Dictionary, not Urban Wikipedia."

The Wikipedia Effect is the tendancy for inquisitive people to become caught in an endless series of pages on the popular open-encyclopedia, "Wikipedia", to which they are forced to read every single page they've opened.
This tends to happen thanks to Wikipedia's inter-linking model, which links important words in a particular article, to an entire article on that word. The trend can then easily cascade from there, ending in dozens of pages that a user finds interesting.
"Don't you just love The Wikipedia Effect? It sure is a good way to stave off boredom."

That douchebag whole spends all day on Wikipedia and then thinks they're the smartest person in the world when in reality they're probably just reciting words and have know idea what they mean.
Most prominantly seen when teachers/professors present new material and the wikipedia genius has to blab out the first paragraph of the wikipedia page about it. After commended for being so smart they are usually asked a more in-depth question and have no clue about it.
I swear if that wikipedia genius acts like he's smarter than me I'm gonna smash his laptop and then we'll see who knows more.

when someone randomly clicks on the blue highlighted words on a wiki article until he/she feels they are reading about something completely unrelated to the original article.
I took a wikipedia train from Phantom Limb to Ceramics.
