You might prefer forums, that's ok, but your claim that users need to be
subscribe to read the Wiki or the Evolution mailing list is wrong. I
dislike forums and IRC, but I like Wikis and mailing lists. Anyway,
to read a Wiki or the Evolution mailing list archive(s), there's no need
to be subscribed. IOW regarding this, there's no difference to a forum.

You do not need to be subscribe to read the Evolution mailing list
archive(s):

https://mail.gnome.org/archives/evolution-list/
http://blog.gmane.org/gmane.comp.gnome.evolution.general

You do not need to be subscribed to read the Wiki:

https://wiki.gnome.org/Apps/Evolution
https://help.gnome.org/users/evolution/stable/

Evolution provides a menu called "Help", resp. just push the "F1" key.

There's also no need to be subscribed to the bug tracker to read
reported bugs.
