Fandom was meant to have the content on pop-culture and media topics that wouldn't belong on the Wikipedia, IIRC, so it isn't like Fandom is trying to compete against Wikipedia, but be the backend library for a certain umbrella topic. There are otherwise wikis like scholarpedia that targets a different market that Fandom doesn't.

Overall, Fandom doesn't seem close to monopolising the wiki farm any time soon.
