Word: wiki crack Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From wiki + crack (cocaine). 1. A notional drug, likened to crack cocaine, supposed to cause individuals to become addicted to editing Wikipedia. Labels: humorous, uncountable Example: Then one night he corrected an error in an article about Jewish holidays. You can do that?! It was his first inhalation of Wiki crack. He became one of Wikipedia's earliest registered users and wrote his first article—on Muckleshoot, a Washington State Indian tribe. Since then, he has made more than 16,000 contributions. Example: "You can't talk about it in terms of left and right," explains Corr. "But the whole way it is set up is about inclusivity, community and equality rather than competition and individualism." For the most part, people at the conference didn't talk about it in these terms at all. When the wiki-crack takes over, all you are interested in is your next hit.
Word: eventualism Part of Speech: noun Etymology: From eventual + -ism. 1. A wikiphilosophy which emphasizes the importance of an article's value in the distant future.

Example: For some, eventualism is a fancy name for "passing the buck." It is being lackadaisical in doing something right now to fix things. For professional writers, editors, and academics, leaving things in a half-baked state was a clear departure from their comfort zone. But given the masses of wiki, Slashdot, Usenet, and open source software veterans, eventualism remained the prevailing attitude, at least in the early days.

Example: Tony. And so I was Bessy, I was quarrelling with myself, I assure you it takes a deal of powerful language to make any impression on me, I’m obliged to come it very strong to do myself any good, but I think I have at last lashed myself into a determination not to stand it as I have done.

But, gentlemen, editors, and scientists, you must hurry up if you expect to kill Spiritualism with sneers, jibes, jokes, contemptuosities, scowls, inuendoes, or anything on that line, for you’ll find it a full Summer’s work. It has got to be a mighty hum—or rather snapping—bug.
