I've mainly only signed up to wikipedia to ask that certain articles, technical articles, contain explanations that a layperson can understand. I am not asking that the whole article be rewritten in lay terms but i think some definition of a term and a bit of explanation should be given in terms a lay person can understand. For instances, ketones and fatty acid syntheis. Why can't these terms and processes be explain for laypeople. They are used in articles written by doctors for laypeople to read so we should be able to know more about them than just a dictionary definition, i believe. I want to know how these things work too. I have no background at all in things like chemistry.
