@Phamle12 With Killer Kev or Endercat TM? :P

@Endercat TM Agreed for most of that, if you look at only the editing aspect, but the editing aspect is not what this is about. Ofc they're not gonna ask editors to leave, but I don't think they really care if a few people quit, tbh. Names are a very important thing and I can completely understand why people would be upset with this, and while I don't care that much (like it ain't gonna affect my life beyond what I type tbh), it is an annoyance to see ^^; I think it will affect how we access Fandom a little, because it'll probably confuse new readers and editors. It's an..odd change :/ I don't think the reaction is exaggerated, I think it's fair because they want to change the actual name of the entire website, and names are more serious than you may think, tbh. Like, in my mind, Wikia + Wikipedia seems natural, FANDOM + Wikipedia is definitely off :/ Wikia is much more recognized than "FANDOM" in my experience, tbh I think if I was like "check out the Disney Fandom pages!" ppl would be like "...The wat? On Tumblr?" XD XD Also, sorry for the late reply, I didn't get the notifications for this in my email, for some reason ;m;
