Considering it's a default feature on new wiki, I would think they aren't going to abandon it, but given their track record one wouldn't be too surprised if they did. I'm kinda indifferent about separating the social aspect granted Fandom wikis aren't traditional wikis.

That's one of my biggest concerns with Discussions. I don't wanna spent lots of time monitoring the feature (one big reason I refused to use article comments), but at the same time need to because it'll be a representation of the wiki. Users could self-moderate as Fandom wants the feature to do, but I doubt that'll keep everything well structured. I imagine a lot of duplicate discussions or completely useless "discussions."
