This is a situation which is above *our* paygrades. Tell the fan to and discuss it with them.

I'll say this: More than one wiki may exist covering a particular topic.

In my case, for example, I admin (among several single-show wikis) The Kim Possible Wiki. There are several other wikis which cover Disney properties and thus *also* cover Kim Possible.

Now, you'e positing a situation where Disney themselves were to come here and start New wikis, then demand that The Disney Wiki and The Kim Possible Wikis be forcibly merged with the one they create and deem as *official*.

Not this exact situation, but Help:Merging communities covers part of it in that an active community cannot be *forced* to merge. And that is something Staff would and should continue to support. Because it is possible to have an Official Wiki *and* unofficial wikis covering the same thing.

I would also imagine, that (for this example) DISNEY would not do something so badly optic'd as to forcibly take over wikis that FANS have spent long hours, efforts, and energy not only building and maintaining, but *visiting* when there were no Official-official wikis for their properties.

That's just poor juju.
