[Is it possible to activate the old forums after discussions is activated?] As far as I understand, these old forums are being retired, whether we like it or not. Everything on these current forums are going to be migrated to Discussions, and my understanding is that this is still planned and that many communities have already had this happen. And actually quite a number of the bigger wiki's are the ones that have been targeted with the move (somehow we've been missed, but I don't see us being missed for much longer).

@Seelentau: The problem with a "template like" thread is that there's no way to have it continually "pinned" to the top of the forum, highlights aren't a suitable thing as those disappear after 7 days. And there's no guarantee users will actually care about it or use it.
