Personally, as long as the discussions are carefully monitored by the users, I don't see much harm in actually trying to become sociable, even if it's only by a little bit. The forum rules button could be edited to list the topics that should be started on the boards. :) Then call me an elitist, but if you want to simply chat about the series, don't come here. If you know that the purpose of the wiki is to document, why do you come here to do something that strays from that? I don't know, direct the people to the chat feature or the IRC, just don't bleed chitchat into the wiki. You want to edit articles? By all means, edit articles, but not just for the sake of editing, edit to improve the quality of the articles. Take the time to learn how to edit, make fewer, more change-rich edits instead of several, small edits, and all that.
