Preference is to not link to external wikis which are subject to change, when we could just include a stub.
To quote Poppy: ''"Finally, linking to Wikipedia isn't ideal. One, it takes people away from the site. Two, their articles have different goals, and change a lot more often."''

Yeah if it was expanded to include references in the show, it'd be far improved, anything like this needs to be written in the context of the shows/podcasts/office/whatever. I think Nigel's "vision" was a wiki that could explain everything within the shows, so you could understand 'the world' of the shows . I'll extend it.
