User blog comment:Brandon Rhea/Wiki domains will be changing from wikia.com to fandom.com in early 2019/@comment-1905698-20180815192538/@comment-20644-20180815194643

We've actually seen significant increases in engagement with the FANDOM brand. We'll talk about this more in depth in posts over the next few weeks, but two key points I would make now are:


 * We've seen the number of wiki edits and wiki contributors increase in a consistent trend over the last year. This is as the FANDOM brand has become more prominent, the site was modernized, ads were reduced, and page performance improved. All of those factors have come together to increase the number of contributors to communities. Not just traffic, but actual wiki editors.
 * In the comprehensive FANDOM app, where the FANDOM app is incredibly prominent and all content types are easily accessible in a consistent experience, we’ve seen much more user retention than on desktop and mobile web. That tells us that, while there will always be people who just want to edit wikis, there’s a whole community of people out there who are engaging with all of the content on FANDOM in ways they never have before.

Both of these points will be the subject of their own blog posts over the next few weeks, so stay tuned for more info on that.
