This is Metonymy:

"Today The White House issued a statement..."

This is not:

"Has an active Wikipedia account"

Metonymy is the use of a name (usually something specific like a building, or a part) to stand for something else (usually more general, like a government or organisation, or the whole thing), not the use of one example website with lots of others implied (I don't see where they are implied anyway, this is quite explicitly listing having a wikipedia account as an attribute of a good programmer - what a curious idea).

Most of the symptoms are just trivia entirely unrelated to whether someone might be talented at programming like owning a certain brand of toys, and this undermines anything serious the writer might want to say.
