There's lots, but one glaring one is an Infinite Jest fic I started writing ages ago in the form of a wikipedia article, which I pull out every year or two and try to continue, but every time I pull it out I've forgotten half of what I was trying to do the last time, and I've particularly forgotten what all the jokes meant. Unfortunately I probably need to reread Infinite Jest to finish it, and the book is over a thousand pages long. :P
It was about an event alluded to in a footnote in the book called the MIT Language Riots of 1996, which was itself a reference to a conversation in Don DeLillo's Ratner's Star, and I think using a Wikipedia article to talk about something so complicatedly intertextual was a really great idea, but it's unsurprisingly been tricky to pull off. But maybe someday!
