To be fair, if you go to the linked "List of logic symbols" article that has a table with Latex, Unicode, and even HTML codes. But it's only for logic symbols, no page for all mathematic symbols on the English Wikipedia as far as I can see, so no quick Ctrl+F searching for unicode/latex. :( And most other subsections don't even have a link to such a list.

The English articles would be so much easier to use with

bullets
sortable tables
numerals (1, 2, 3rd, 4th)

instead of paragraphs of wasteful and hard-to-scan prose, and the spelling-out of numbers 0-9. Unfortunately old publishing manuals-of-style rules are mostly used.

At least sentence-case headings and sometimes logical quotation's used. I'd prefer Wikipiedia use Wiktionary's lowercase article names for non-proper-nouns.

To be fair the article is called a glossary, so I guess it's understandable. But if you click the switch language button it brings you to the German one with the table. Guess if we want a real equivalent in English somebody needs to create a new article for that.
