Could you please elaborate on your comment so that i know if any trouble is expected from the idea...

I think he meant like this:

Jason wants to find more about SEO.
He searched google for SEO.
The first results show an How-To entry in SH wiki.
He visited the wiki and read the entry.
He left the wiki, didn't make any attempt to visit the forum.
The forum have been left out.
::END

I think if, the wiki have a header like this forum ( a way to the forum, and make sure he knows it). Then we can minimise this threat.

Thank you for taking the efforst to explain.

I will take all necessary measures to see that making the wiki doesnt in any manner harm the visitors from visiting the forums.
