I agree with what others say. While the word itself may not be negative per-say (with regards to "geek culture" being more accepted these days), it does give the impression that wikia sites are fan-made information rather than actual facts. This comes from that fact that "fan" is usually tagged in front of other words to denote they are not official, and are fan-made- the most commonly used phrase being "fanons". I again agree with others when I say Wikia should seriously reconsider the new logo.
