Wikipedia Law

When someone believes anything and everything that is within a Wikipedia article pertaining to a certain subject. Commonly done by high school students who paraphrase such articles then receive a bad grade on their paper because the teacher disproved what they stated.

"My teacher gave me a D on my paper because the figure wasn't actually dead yet! It said so on Wikipedia though!"
"Fool, stop holding to Wikipedia Law."
