This is a good point. One of the features of TVTropes (helped by its wiki format) is that you can get a short explanation of any linked concept right at the top of the page. This is a good argument for why the wiki is what one should link to first, instead of the post explaining it on LW. Should wiki articles start with a short, definition-like summary?
ETA: I agree with Vladimir_Nesov below. Abstracts are key.
Ideally, long blog posts should also start with an abstract, like any other publication, and contain a systematic review of related material in one of the sections.
