Because of the sheer amount of visitors the 'pedia, the owners decided to run for President in the latest campaign elections. Here's a look at what life would be like if they won.
1. You would need indisputable proof to back up your statements

Wikipedia is well known for encouraging factual veracity. When writing or editing an article, users are encouraged to provide as many sources as possible. You would think that these sources could be anything, from a sole issue of Teen Beat magazine to some guy you met on the bus. But apparently not.

If Wikipedia became rulers of the world's foremost superpower, they could enforce this rule in real life. No longer would people be able to say that "The war in Iraq isn't about oil", citing Fox News as a reference. As we all know, Fox News isn't actual news, so it doesn't constitute as a valid source.

2. Telling lies would constitute a capital offense, punishable by death

3. Wikipedia keep tabs on American citizens (later changed to Ameripedians)

4. Censorship is in full swing

In consequence, you wouldn't be able to state how your life is "the worst life in the world". Go cry, emo kid. Or throw yourself off a bridge, whichever is easiest.

5. Wikipedia know your future, present and past
Since they will become the new dictators of the world, you can expect them to dictate how your life is going to turn out. Sleep tight.
