@Handheld - Hmm. I mentioned elsewhere in the comments that Wookieepedia has the old wiki-style forums and Discussions and both are editable. That doesn't, however, help here. Staff have stated they don't intend to change the behavior of the old forums or to have multiple forum experiences, but if the new old forum is truly replaced by Discussions the two couldn't actively coexist. Being so far away from the Forum integration into Discussions I'm under the impression Staff may not have decided how that will work though there may be even more backlash is the old style forum couldn't be used with Discussions.
