I think the Admin Forums should be retired. They see very little traffic and Wikia does almost nothing to advertise them. I only look to help at the Admin Forums after I have looked at these forums. Lastly, about 90% of the questions asked at these forums are really admin questions.

As far as putting a link on Special:Forums, Timeshifter has basically revealed that it should support some MediaWiki: message page so you can add customized intro info for your new forums.
