One can think of an almost comic situation where a busy sysadmin has to do something quickly, does a quick look at the wiki, finds the article, starts going through it (yeah, we all know one should read the whole thing first, but in real life, we're often rushed) and gets to the bottom and says, "Oh heck. That was a waste of time." (Probably using stronger language, however.)
