The problem is not how the new Wikia looks. My personal preferences are irrelevant in that aspect. Usually users don't want to change no matter how preferable the change is.

But there is a difference between a "cosmetic" change and a structural change. You never limit the width of the content area in sites/pages that rely on content, and a wiki is mainly content and as much as possible.

The other issue is that they rolled the change without even making some kind of acknowledgment on comments made by the community.
