It's not just a hole. It's a rabbit hole, akin to the one Alice fell down to Wonderland.
I enjoy falling down Wikipedia rabbit holes because I never know where I may end up.
When you go on wikipedia and find an article then click on a hyperlink, then click on another hyperlink on another page, etc.
David Bowie and Lou Reed were Wikipedia page-hopping one night when they realised they were really really awesome.

Anytime you google anything one of the first 10 hits will always be the wikipedia article about it.
I typed 'google' into google and the 3rd hit was the article on google at wikipedia, thus demonstrating the wikipedia rule of google.

Similar to 6 degrees of separation and 6 degrees of Kevin Bacon.
Any 2 articles of Wikipedia can be connected by only using the links on the pages in 6 clicks or less. It's a fact, although not possible to prove.
"lets play 6 degrees of Wikipedia"
"okay lets connect peanut and Las Vegas"
(click)
(1)Peanut- Indonesia
(2)Indonesia - 2004 tusnami
(3)2004 Tsunami- Dam
(4)Dam- Hoover Dam
(5)Hoover Dam- Las Vegas

Extending the metaphor of "surfing" the internet, a Wikipedia rip current is the phenomenon of browsing Wikipedia and getting side tracked for hours by clicking related links.
I got stuck in a Wikipedia rip current, I started reading about the civil war then three hours later I found myself reading about butterflies.
