My thoughts:

The navigation needs to focus more on content and links to articles. Users usually come to find information and less so to edit - I would prefer something like the one below that focuses more on what people are looking for.



With more second level navigation, however, this would mean shortening the right links into icons - which should be easy enough icons for users to identify but might need some testing to see if it affects clicks to discussions and editing. They could possibly be expanded to include the words on larger screens.

The navigation popup itself is also a bit fat, and does not play well with both the flow of links (Episode 1-6 is split from Episode 7-9) and also with smaller screen sizes. Changing the height from 48px to 36px seems more appropriate and lets the original total of 10 per navigation level stay.
