Founded in...
Is it correct that Wikia was founded in October 2003? I thought it was October 2004? --Spankart 20:45, 9 May 2005 (UTC)
 * I am quite sure it was 2004, so I have updated the page. -- JamesTeterenko 22:53, 9 May 2005 (UTC)
 * Yes, definitely 2004. I've no idea why I wrote 2003. Angela (talk) 21:02, 10 May 2005 (UTC)

Statistics
To justify my qualification of Angela's recent reversion, I produce the two lines that were at the top when I clicked on that stats link a few minutes ago:

Wikia Statistics Wednesday December 28, 2005

I'm a little wistful, but too respectful to complain. Others who see the unqualified "weekly" claim have a right to complain that it is "not true". We don't want to lose them.

Rewriting history
Okay, I accept that Wikicities is now Wikia, although I have yet to read an explanation of why the name was changed. It's a little creepy to read all the statements about Wikia (e.g., date of founding) that are clearly referring to the Wikicities incarnation. Perhaps some explanation of the name change would be in order in this article? - dcljr 03:42, 20 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Thanks for pointing that out. I've added a note about the name change with a link to the press release explaining it. Angela (talk) 09:05, 20 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Hmm... "explaining" is a strong word for it. It mentions the name change, I'll give you that, but it doesn't explain it at all. I've since found the more informative Talk:Wikicities relaunches as Wikia. - dcljr 08:14, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

Page "About Wikia"
Où puis-je trouver cette page en français ?


 * Je suis désolé, mais nous n'avons pas cette page en français encore. Egon 19:08, 18 January 2007 (UTC)

Pronunciation
Hi, is there any way we could get an ogg file of the pronunciation? A la Wikipedia? As, I've heard it pronounced both "wik-ee-a" and "wiki-a". 82.16.7.63 11:47, 31 March 2007 (UTC)


 * There is no official pronunciation. Neither of those are wrong, but there are also other ways of saying it which are equally correct. Angela (talk) 13:52, 2 July 2007 (UTC)
