Why not call it a "note"  ?
Since that's what most BB thread-starting posts are, anyway.

Might I also recommend www.thesaurus.com  :)

BTW, I wouldn't just give in and call it an "article."  Personal opinion, 
but since the forum is separate, you want to make it easy for people to 
recognize what they are posting and to where.
