I hope you will go over the problems people have brought up "over the last year", which were the biggest reasons why people left. Auto-playing videos that don't actually cover the content of the page and are made by someone who doesn't know what they are talking about, ads that cover pages, page width issues, major executive changes that occur without the input of individual wiki staff that may not want that change, dumb death of Monobook, etc. etc. etc.

Unless Wikia undergoes a major overhaul that cares more for its users than its ad revenue, I don't see this working at all.
