Thank you, Ajraddatz. In an ironic twist I'd say that www.wikia.com (or wikia.wikia.com) is probably one the few short form URLs that I would actually prefer to see automatically redirect to http://www.wikia.com/wiki/Special:MyHome

So if the original post is lobbying for equivalent handling of wikia.wikia.com (i.e. same as for MyFavoriteWiki.wikia.com) then my response would still be to The current situation where the one preference gets applied Wikia-wide might be a reasonable temporary measure but it's not an optimal long-term solution.
 * request that each user be free to specify an opt-in preference for redirect (default being no redirect) on a per-wiki basis
