Fandom can cover aspects not notable enough for Wikipedia. However, the fact that many wikis used the -pedia part in their name and not wiki- (WoW, Halo, Star Wars) didn't help Wikia's branding. It's not uncommon, even here on Community Central, for people to erroneously refer to a wiki as a wikipedia.
