Not to mention Wikia. But really, only those unfamiliar with Wikipedia
get confused between the three. And as this really is only a
background/editorial process, the name isn't _as_ significant.
Admittedly, it's new editors who are most likely to not figure out why
their edits haven't appeared yet ("I was told anybody could edit this
site. So why hasn't my improvement showing up? Do I need to refresh
the page? … Argh!!!"… rage quit; we lose an editor). But I don't know
if they're going to care which name we choose, so long as it's
understandable to the layman. YMMV.
