User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/Wiki domains will be changing from wikia.com to fandom.com in early 2019/@comment-1028990-20180821224421

What Wikia editors need to understand is that Wikia's staff will have no incentive to seriously consider editor feedback during changes like this unless implementing the changes lead to a substantial number of editors on all communities leaving. Over the past several years, Wikia has only made the experience of editing and running a wiki more difficult for legacy users (limiting customization options, deleting Monobook, and now all of this Fandom crap) and those users have mostly responded by taking it, maybe complaining in a comment section like this one after the decision has already been made, and continuing to dedicate time and effort to enriching Wikia's staff with new content that Wikia will then slap ads on. If you run a wiki and don't like the direction Wikia is going in, fork it and move it to its own server. If you're an editor on a wiki that hasn't been moved already, petition the admins to fork it and upload a copy somewhere else, and find as many members of the community as you can to edit the copied wiki. A site that relies on the work of volunteers to stay profitable will have no choice but to listen to those volunteers if enough of them quit in protest to hurt its chances of staying profitable. As a Wikia user, you have more power than the users of almost any website, but that power is completely worthless if you aren't willing to use it.
