That's considered vandalism of fandom, and probably rightly so.

Could you imagine if someone declared a successor to wikipedia and edited all the pages to redirect?

it already belongs to the Wikipedia community, but it's licensed under a copyleft licence. Ditto for Wikia. Anyone can fork it if they give proper attribution.
