Well, there's nothing to understand there, since you
yourself determine the process.  As Sergei Sergei
Dolmatov pointed out in his reply, you can store
either text, html and php in your articles, and you
can use several format specifiers to display the
article content, abstract, title and so on in the
appropriate way:
http://www.midgard-project.org/manual/en/part.concepts.syntaxaddition.php

As for the role of articles versus pages and styles,
the main idea is that the articles and topics
hierarchy contains pure content.  Pages then
correspond to the different URLs in your site, and
contain code specific for that URL (can be code
extracting articles and topics in some way or another,
or a plain php web app), whereas styles contain both
html and php to define layout across several pages.
I suggest you start with the introductory articles on
http://www.webtechniques.com/archives/2000/05/jepson/
and
http://www-106.ibm.com/developerworks/library/w-midgard/,
the authors did a really good job to make that
distinction clear.

PS: I was at FOSDEM this weekend, were some of you as
well?
