Have you read some of the articles on math subjects? It's like they're written for mathematicians by mathematicians.

Even some mathematics concepts I have a decent grasp on ... the corresponding wikipedia entry reads like an alien language.

Thats what makes the wiki format so great. When I have no clue what a word means, it's probably blue and I can just follow the link to find out. The problem arises when I'm 20 links in and realize "yeah maybe there's a reason people have phd's in this topic".
