User blog comment:Mira Laime/Introducing long-awaited Discussions updates/@comment-5558012-20190330054012

Community Feeds appears to be a better home for Discussions, NOT for the wiki. A discussions feature (Discussions, walls, comments, etc) doesn't really generate editors. The wikis I've been on demonstrate this as many of these users just talk, not edit. Not necessarily a bad thing, but Discussions shouldn't be attempting to take over the wiki as a feature or feed. Leave Home pages alone.

As a couple others mentioned, it appears article tags are the only real bonus here, well maybe the additional Discussions theming (I still believe we should have more control over wiki theming and have less auto-chosen colors - cough nav dropdown cough). Refusing to use wikitext leads me to believe button formatting is coming (slow and inefficient) and would seem there's still going to be problems come migration of existing forum threads, especially those heavily formatted or focused on projects or coding. @ mentions I don't see much constructive use for, moreso considering reporting content is already available. Personally I don't want people @ing me. If I want to see something, I'll look at it in my own time, otherwise report the content.
