That is not a trick. It merely means that anonymous editing is disabled. It has no influence on search engines.

Google can only show the pages they've crawled, and there's no telling when they'll visit you. You can't tell Google to come to your site. And even when they visit you, you have to make sure you have enough content so Google can understand what your wiki is about and who might be looking for it. And then hope you rank high enough to be one of the top results for those searches.
