Trying to respond to your "wiki is not..." statement from this awful gmail mobile website...
While technically correct, from the user's pov, which is the one the websites's creators have, wiki is often used as a synonim for wikipedia. I hear more often „did you search on wiki?” than „did you search wikipedia?”. I find this distinction is nowadays a little pedantic.
