		 I think information is important to an argument.  However, getting a wiki for every topic that is mentioned is quite ridiculous.  Sometimes, it's not an argument, it's just a conversation.  If I were sitting around a table with some friends and we got in a debate, I would hope that they wouldn't drag out an encyclopedia or the internet to wiki something to prove a point.  Being that this is the internet, it makes it easier to cut and paste links and such. 
 
I think that doing some research on your own if you are interested is important, but when people start doing that in the middle of a debate or discussion, I don't respond unless I'm very interested in the topic and want to pursue to educate myself.  I'm more of a thrower in of my 2 cents or opinion than doing an essay.
