As mentioned in other blogs, the phrase "fandom" is commonly associated with fanon and fan-fiction, so for most wikis, this undermines the point of providing factual information. In addition, the name itself can be seen with a negative connotation, as fandoms are mostly seen as toxic zones where people pass character pornography around. Not saying all are, but that's what most people think about when the word is said.
