You're looking for a "google it" analogon? A suitable pesudo-verb to
shorten "I looked it up on wikipedia" might be "I wp'd it" (pronounced
"I whipped it").

This might cause confusion in the BDSM scene, though. It might also
trigger baseless accusations from the animal protection people. But
then, so could "mouse driver".
