[WikiEN-l] Wikipedia words

[David Goodman]

Even  looking for the search phrase
"portmanteau wikipedia" there are 1320 hits, almost all mirrors. A
great many sites simply search Wikipedia if they find nothing in their
own database, even just in order to show up in the results list no
matter what one searches,.
