I discovered this game on SomethingAwful.com. What you do is find a Wikipedia article on a relevant subject, for example, let's use knight (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Knight). Then, you find an article that is somehow related, yet is 100% useless to over 99% of the general population, for example, Jedi Knight (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jedi_Knight). Then, you compare the lengths, citations, professionalism, and depth of coverage between the two articles...and cry. It's not called Wikigroaning for nothing. Here's a link to the Something Awful article, which lists many examples that have been posted on their forums, such as the fact that modern warfare is shorter than lightsaber combat, the Dominion Wars (Star Trek) entry is longer than the one for the Civil War (aka The War Between the States), and the entry on Pon Farr alone is longer than the entry on the mythological character Vulcan.
