This was discussed at length during Wikia Community Connect this past August. It's something that's coming, like it or not.

With Discussions having rolled out a while ago, it's devolved into one part Q&A, one part Fanfics, and one part VS discussion. In it's current form it lacks any sort of structure and Wikia is reaching out to communities to find out what works best and try to implement something that will work with all wikis across the board.

It's not going to be an exact science and there are going to be some hard bumps along the way I suspect.

I hope that with Discussions they do implement post types so that unwanted posts can be filtered out of a users feed. (For example, I really dislike the endless VS topics. I also find posting Fanfics in a discussion board inappropriate.)

If the Admins had their own tag that only admins can see that would be great. A separate Administrative Discussions away from the rest of the riff-raff would actually be better.
