General population user here, I use Wikia all the time for information on my favorite shows and movies and have never heard of "fandom" having a negative context. I understand how someone who is in the thick of it every day would have a different experience with the word but that doesn't mean that people in the general population who may not look at this stuff everyday have had the same experience you have. Maybe before jumping down the throats of everyone who just worked on this launch, wait to see what the actual general population says about the change. See how people outside the community react to "fandom". Maybe you'll see that not everyone thinks exactly the way you expect them to. If the general population reacts positively to the change, maybe it will kill the current negative connotations and this whole argument will have been for nothing.

Also, has anyone had any experience with Ducksoup? He's pretty cute. Justsayin.
