Heck, we need /more/ not fewer tables because Wikipedia is filled with tabular/almanac data that isn't at all well-suited to prose.
This is not the truth. Most of this data stuff is lists of labeled items (in HTML talk it's definition lists):
<dl> <dt>Official language</dt> <dd>Arabic</dd>
<dt>Capital</dt> <dd>Baghdad</dd>
... </dl>
Please, don't turn those data into tables. Offering tables as an alternate view might be okay.
BTW, rendering tables takes CPU power; probably this isn't an issue for you and me, but in some parts of the world modern PCs are simply "not available".
