Have you ever seen the initials "WP" on this website and mistaken it for "Wikipedia". I had for a minute one time.

Yeah, me too. I was an editor of Wikipedia long before I came to this site, and so was familiar with "WP" meaning "Wikipedia".

Incidentally, Wikipedia is the site I am on the most often when I am not on WP.

I always abbreviate Wikipedia as "Wiki", so no.
