Fandom's 20th Anniversary (click here to learn more)
Fandom is 20 years old! That’s right, Fandom – formerly Wikia, formerly Wikicities – was founded on October 18, 2004! This summer, on July 25th we kicked off our anniversary celebration with our annual, highly-anticipated Fandom Party in San Diego! Check it out! Also stay tuned on Community Central to see another celebration in honor of the anniversary!
Anon editing / Emailconfirmation (click here to learn more)
Logged in editors will be required to confirm their email addresses before they can edit or comment on wikis where anonymous editing is disabled. Fandom will also be disabling anonymous editing on wikis that have had inactive admins or moderators for at least seven days (while retaining the option for admins to turn anon editing back on when they return from inactivity). Thanks to feedback presented by community members, we arrived at these changes announced as an alternative, with no impact on anonymous editing.
Offensive Language Policy (click here to learn more)
On Fandom, users can create wikis on many topics, including ones with mature themes like violence, sexuality, and profanity, as explained in our Community Creation Policy, sometimes however, certain words or phrases, aren't allowed on the platform according to our Terms of Use. This new policy helps clarify Fandom’s position on certain terms and descriptions that we do not permit on Fandom.
