IIUC, in a forum, all the various replies are shown forever (unless perhaps 
some are deleted).

In a wiki, one can go back and edit the page.  When discussion has carried on 
long enough to uncover the answers someone can (and in the ideal, should) go 
back, edit the page, delete the extraneous discussions and highlight the 
answers clearly.
