"Plagiarism" in the strict sense of the word doesn't exist on wikis. Wikia operates under the CC-BY-SA license, which means that Wikia wikis are free to copy content from other Wikia wikis so long as they attribute it to the original source.

If the content isn't properly attributed yet, the solution is as simple as placing making sure that each copied article has a link back to the original one. You could create a template and put it at the bottom of the copied article. For example, Wikipedia is often used when content is copied from Wikipedia.

Your first step should be to contact the person who copied the content and ask them to properly attribute it as required by Community Central:Licensing. If they refuse/fail to do so, please send in a note to Special:Contact so staff can look into it further :)
