Why are Wikipedia's technical articles impossible to understand?
Like every rational human being, I love being able to use Wikipedia to get basic familiarity with a wide range of topics. However, why is it that nearly all technical articles (science, IT, math, etc) are written in impenetrable language? I understand that topics like quantum mechanics and axiomatic set theory are inherently complex, but isn't it logical in introductory paragraphs to try to dumb down the language (i.e. explain to someone like they're five) so that a layman can get a basic understanding
