Does anyone else suffer from this problem, whereby you listen to or watch any kind of programme and think "I could add that to Wikipedia!"
For me, there's so many facts I encounter every day that having that thought becomes overwhelming.
I just wonder if I'm alone.

No, you are not alone ;-P
Sometimes you can look at my editing history and see what I am watching / listening to 'live' (eg. documentary on Skippy the Bush Kangaroo very recently!)

Some books are very productive in that way, if you have time to add each interesting fact to the encyclopedia. TV is a bit awkward to reference, at least routinely.

Last time I had a serious attack of that, with a Book, I spent a day doing diagrams and two days learning the math markup language stuff well enough to transcribe the formulas in accurately.
It is somewhat self-correcting ;-P
