You are referring to automatic wikification.  There is an existing patch to
do this at http://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=2336.  Automatic
wikification for Wikipedia has been proposed numerous times on this list.
Every time it is, people bring up good reasons why it should not be
implemented, especially on large wikis.  For more information, search the
archives of this list.
