User blog comment:Craiglpalmer/Wikia is now Fandom powered by Wikia/@comment-26402117-20160926161431

I'm quite cool with the Fandom project, and I guess there's a reasoning behind this move.

In times of confusion for the userbase however, Wikia needs to be proactive about ensuring all aspects of its identity aren't neglected - particularly the wiki communities at the core. This is a big change and symbolically a new direction - that baton's in Wikia's hands, as there's a strong need for goodwill & appreciation of users' concerns.
