To search directly in the wikipedia for a string found on a website, it would be much easier to use a wikipedia entry in the "share" menu of the phone, instead of copying the text, close the browser, open the wikipedia app, tap into search and insert.

I'm not sure that putting Wikipedia in the "share" menu is the best option, because it wouldn't be at all obvious that "share" really means "search" in this case.  If there is a way to put the app as its own option in that context menu (i.e. next to "Share", have an actual option called "Search Wikipedia"), then we should definitely do that.
