I assume existing forum threads with wikitext involved will be migrated without them breaking, right?

I know Fandom is trying their best to improve the experience (and I strongly appreciate that), but because the decision to retire wikitext functionality is fixed-in-place, what do you say to communities that somewhat rely on wikitext functionality on a daily basis?

Is Fandom going to try and improve wiki-style forums to an extent, making them easier to use (e.g. an option of enabling a preload form for communities that use it instead of having users edit the page to submit one, similar to the way VSTF/SOAP wikis have very easy-to-use forms / modules for reporting)?
