Comment(by Jinx):

 I, too, have been waiting and hoping someone would implement this feature.

 As for how it's implemented, I'm pretty sure Trillian simply obtains a
 list of all article names, and tries to match each word in the
 conversation to an article. If a match exists, it underlines it.
 Onmouseover yields a lookup of the first (summary) paragraph of the
 article. Of course, this could be customized to allow
 OnClick/OnMiddleClick etc.

 This would be a great feature, indeed.
