User blog comment:Craiglpalmer/Wikia is now Fandom powered by Wikia/@comment-25356303-20160926165732

I'm not a fan of this. They hardly could have chosen a more confusing name. "Fandom" already has a negative connotation among a lot of users. While most wikis on Wikia may be filled with pop culture content, I seriously doubt most of said wikis want to be called "Fandoms."

I joined Wikia to expand factual, informative content - it's a wiki hosting service. I don't like that Wikia has pushed so much for (often inferior) fan-created content lately. This new name detracts from the site's original purpose - wikis.
