No, not for any of the stuff I'm getting into fights about lately, like cliques and BADSITES. But for one of its article deletions.
You see, I was working on edits to one of my personal websites, in this case one about e-mail formatting and related technical and cultural issues ( http://mailformat.dan.info/ ). I decided, in the course of talking about forwarded messages, to refer to the concept of "glurge", which is the sort of sickeningly-sweet motivational stuff (Norman Vincent Peale - ish) that gets regularly forwarded around the net. Usually when I do something like that, I like to stick in an external link to some place that describes what I'm talking about, and lately Wikipedia is almost always my first choice to try to find one.
If your purpose is to link somewhere that describes a term, Wiktionary would be a better choice than Wikipedia.
