Wiki Dive

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.

wiki-diving

perusing articles on the website Wikipedia, usually without realizing the amount of time spent, often jumping from article to article, following hyperlinks and covering a wide variety of topics

"I'm sorry I missed your call yesterday. I spent 3 hours wiki-diving and neglected to answer my phone."
