But you have to consider that chances are, the person entering the article
won't select all the possible keywords that could become links ahead of
time, so you'd end up with articles that don't have enough links.. but I
like the idea.

Personally, i think a spider/bot is the best bet, maintain a list of
phrases/words that should point to links and add those in.

Alternately, when a new article gets created search for all the articles
that might need a reference to it and ask the user to select which ones to
process (automagically add links to the new article) (avoids the time gap of
a bot)
