I'm not satisfied with the new updated page header layout, and I really hope that if it is ever forced on to all wikis, that it can be customisable with CSS/JS, even if it means that I have to customise it in my personal CSS/JS to avoid possible TOU violations.

My stance on having the new forums replaced with discussions remains mostly neutral, but there are some things that could make my stance more positive. The discussions seem so isolated from the rest of the wiki to the point where discussion posts don't count as edits, nor do they appear in Special:WikiActivity, which makes it awkward to attract users the way the new forums did.

Another thing - and I know I've said this many times before but - is that only certain background colours selected in Special:ThemeDesign will show up in Discussions, otherwise the background colour will show up white. More importantly, the fact that discussions remain incompatible with CSS makes discussions look out of place on wikis that have highly customised designs.
