So one of the most annoying pet peeves on facebook for me as a page manager (in this case almost always because of Wikipedia) is that it defaults to liking and commenting AS Wikipedia when the page is mentioned in someone's post (which, as you can imagine, is relatively frequently when half+ of your friends are Wikipedians). This has caused multiple occasions where I've accidentally liked a comment or post as Wikipedia and had to revert myself (luckily I've never accidentally commented as Wikipedia, the comment box ends up with a little globe next to it instead of my picture so I notice, the comment like button does not).
Has anyone seen some setting I'm missing to not make this happen?

No, but I have been looking for it too. Beeing a page admin for 10+ pages has made me very aware on that little, little symbol which shows what account is in play. But it is an added effort I would happily get rid of.
If anyone has any other suggestions (besides using the pages manager app which make hard to mess things up but also adds another, less user friendly, routine) I would also be interested.

I'm just gonna also concur with James on this and offer my own anecdote of accidentally "checking-in" as Wikipedia because a local coffee shop forces you to do that in order to access their "free" wifi.
Greatest endorsement that coffee shop has ever received - it got 1,000 likes in the single 1 minute I didn't realize I had done that.
I'll def keep on eyes peeled for any Fb updates shared from the social media blogs I follow If I find it.
