I agree with this, but the anon who replied to you is right: that isn't a feature of "modern" fandom, it's been around as long as fanfic has been around (late 1960s -- and if you count stuff like Paradise Lost and Prometheus Unbound and the like, even earlier).

And the "obsessive details" type of fandom is not "traditional" fandom. I don't think it really existed until Star Trek (with a couple of exceptions, like Sherlock Holmes fandom with Baring-Gould and the Great Game etc, but Sherlock Holmes fandom has always been a special case.)
