Why did Wikia change to Fandom?

Is Wikia reliable?
Wikipedia is not a reliable source for citations elsewhere on Wikipedia. As a user-generated source, it can be edited by anyone at any time, and any information it contains at a particular time could be vandalism, a work in progress, or simply incorrect.
How do I enable comments on Fandom?
Step 1: Within the wiki space, if there are multiple pages, choose the specific wiki page from the list on the right. Step 2: Click the Comment button and type your comment in the box. Step 3: Click Add.
Is Wikia the same as Wikipedia?
Wikipedia is a free encyclopedia by the Wikimedia Foundation. It is a place where anyone can create and edit without any advertisements. Fandom/Wikia is also a free Wiki hosting service. However, it contains advertisements.
Does Wikia have viruses?
Wikia doesn’t get viruses. It may be an extension on your browser, or a virus that has been infecting your computer.
Why students should not use Wikipedia?
Many colleges and universities, as well as public and private secondary schools, have policies that prohibit students from using Wikipedia as their source for doing research papers, essays, or equivalent assignments. This is because Wikipedia can be edited by anyone at any moment.
What are signs that a source might not be credible?
Non-credible websites may have a poor design, broken links, and grammar and spelling errors. They may lack author, date and/or source information. They will not be associated with credible institutions, organizations, or entities. They may contain unbelievable or incorrect information.
How do I know if a source is credible?
Look for:
- An author who is an expert or a well-respected publisher (such as the NY Times or Wall Street Journal).
- Citations for sources used.
- Up-to-date information for your topic.
- Unbiased analysis of the topic (i.e. author examines more than one perspective on the issue).
Can you turn off comments on a Facebook post?

Why are comments on Facebook not showing?
