That such a question should come up at all suggests that we have a long 
way to go on idiot-proofing Wikipedia.  And I would not consider 
LittleDan to be an idiot.  

There is no reason why you can't link to the table from the symbols. 
 This would be useful the first time the symbol appears in an article. 
 You can use the format [[Table of mathematical symbols|&#8751]].
