"The prostomium of Nereididae bears a pair of palps that are differentiated into 2 units, the proximal unit is much larger than the distal unit. Parapodia are mostly biramous (only the first two pairs are uniramous). Peristomium fused with the first body segment, with usually 2 pairs of tentacular cirri. The first body segment with 1-2 pairs tentacular cirri without aciculae. Compound setae present. Notopodia are distinct (rarely reduced), usually with more flattened lobes, notosetae compound falcigers and/or spinigers (rarely notosetae absent). They have 2 prostomial antennae (absent in Micronereis). Pharynx, when everted, clearly consists of 2 portions, with a pair of strong jaws on the distal portion and usually with conical teeth on one or more areas of both portions. Most genera have no gills (if present, they are usually branched and arise on mid-anterior segments of body). The larval body consists of four segments."
Yes Jimbo Wales, we understand your message. BURN THE VATICAN!
I have seen this in a few other articles too. When it comes to science, Wikipedia usually doesn't bother explaining for the layman. You need to know something about the topic before you can understand it. But since it mostly as links for the scientific terms, it is okay.
