Why is this fanfiction on the wiki?

The problem is that it's not just simply "borrowing concepts", the characters are literally the same, act the same, and even have the same skill names (*******, Continuous punches from saitama)

And Saitama is, I believe, in for a couple of chapters (5-6?) at the very least. It's not a simple reference. What the author says doesn't really matter, this is fanfiction, without a fraction of a doubt.
 
The reasoning for why they're present in the story doesn't matter to the question if it's fanficiton or not
I mean, it does. Because there's legitimately a difference between fan fiction crossover with a OC (like a OC in a Smash Bros story) and a series that just has a ton of copyright infringement.

Ultimately you can rip off the latter's copyright issues without (mostly) effecting the story, while the same cannot be said of the former.

Neither would be allowed on the wiki though.
 
And utilizing "What aboutism" if the brief appearances or borrowing of concepts is fanfiction, things like Animator vs Animation and any verse like it would also be FC/OC.
Animator vs Animation is also a verse that's already standing on some incredibly thin ice, so it's probably a bad idea to compare your verse to it.
