Line 269:
* Visqueen (plastic sheeting)
* [["Weird Al" Yankovic]]: Not a product, but so successful (compared to other parody artists, even notables like [[Bob Rivers]]) that people on file sharing sites mistakenly tend to [[Misattributed Song|use the name on all parody songs]] - even those he didn't or would never write. He doesn't like it.
* Wikipedia (aka [[The Other Wiki]]) (wiki-based encyclopaedia): A registered trademark of the Wikimedia Foundation. Frequently misused to refer to wikis in general. [[Wikia]] (Jimbo Wales' for-profit hosting company) registered multiple domains which [https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-12171977 infringed the Wikileaks mark] at one point as [[Take That|retaliation]] for a press release that billed Wikileaks as a 'Wikipedia of secrets'.
* Windex (glass and mirror cleaning spray)
* Winnebago (Class A recreational vehicle)
