Not sure how long their front page will show this, but The Age newspaper (theage.com.au) is linking to a story about some magazine-style wikis at wikia.com with the Wikipedia logo. They do clarify the distinction between wikia and Wikipedia, but it's still a bit...odd. I wonder what it means...is the Wikipedia logo now associated with wikis in general?

The article does begin with "The people behind Wikipedia bring their user-driven publishing model..." and does make numerous comparisons (ads, public confidence, etc.) with Wikipedia.
Not to mention the Wikipedia logo is much more recognizable than the Wikia one...
