The term used to define hours spent browsing through links from one page to the next on Wikipedia. Lifetimes are spent this way.
What's Tom been doing the last few hours? Oh, he's been on Wiki-crack, can't get him off it.

Frequently referencing Wikipedia while watching a t.v. show to find out interesting historical facts about the program's cast.
Surfing Wikipedia continually out of sheer boredom.
Ex. Tonight, while watching Family Guy, I was being a Wiki Hawk and found out that Seth Mcfarland used to be a writer for the cartoon Johnny Bravo.

When something is too insignificant to warrant an explanation or reason behind it. Also more generally used to describe people, places, or things that don't matter or are unknown, especially in comparison to something more popular or significant. Derived from articles on Wikipedia that are in red because no one has cared to write an article for them.
Example 1
Person 1: "Samuel L Jackson has been in a lot of movies."
Person 2: "Yeah, but most of them are Wiki Red."
Example 2
Person 1: "Dude, remember Charles from Kindergarten, I saw him at the bar last night, he's a pilot now!"
Person 2: "Charles? Who cares about Wiki Red ass Charles, I just hit the damn lottery!"
Example 3
Person 1: "Meh, did you hear about the inside deal Wall Street execs are making with Lobbyist in the Senate?"
Person 2: "No!? That's some Wiki Red shit."

A "Wiki Wonder" is someone who posts on forums or blogs to let everyone know how smart they think they are. They want you to believe they know what they're talking or they have the definitive answer to a topic because they looked it up on wiki. In reality all they know is how to spell "wiki".
Or worse yet, they spew their answer without telling you they looked it up on wiki, as if they are somehow highly intelligent.
Dude I know what I'm talking about...I looked it up on wiki.
That ass hat don't know shit. He's nothing but a Wiki Wonder.

When someone intentionally jumps into an online user collaborative encyclopedia to research one thing that blows up into researching multiple subjects.
Brian: Dude, you weren't on the psn last night. Where were you?
Roy: Yeah, I took a wiki dive on "The Fight: Lights out" and ended up reading everything on the video game fighting genre.

Intentionally adding false, semi-believable "facts" onto a wikipedia page hoping it will become an accepted truth.

"where did you hear that?"
"wikipedia"
