Do those sites really encourage that usage?

Reading those examples has clouded my immediate recall, so it's impossible for me to say for certain, but I believe I've only ever used "Add/Message me on [sitename]" rather than "Add/See my [sitename]".

Saying "I have a [sitename]" just sounds weird to my tongue/ear, and it seems like if I ever tried to use those examples, I would instinctively add the word "profile/account/feed" to the end of each.

I just checked the most recent email newsletter I've received, and they say "follow on Twitter"/"like on Facebook", rather than "follow our Twitter"/"like our Facebook".

For the record (since you've replied to my comment directly) I meant that only as a general comment, and I in no way object to Wikia's decisions regarding how they choose to present their brand, and I applaud Wikia's decision to not attempt to force everyone to use this branding.

Wikia can wikia their wikia whatever they wikia, but I will always use "tissues" rather than "Kleenex&reg; Booger&copy; Blowers&trade;"

Although I regularly use both tissues and wikis, I have no personal connection with the companies which provide them, any inherent rights simply for using those things, nor any illusions of being owed anything by those companies.

Although "instructions how to use tissues" doesn't work as an analogy, I definitely agree that the help pages need work.
