--------------------
How do you propose to fix the line between these two cases?
 
If you check our page on reliable sources I think it was (I worked on these  
quite a while ago, can't quite remember where it was put), it already states  
that we don't have to source things that are trivial, common knowledge,  etc.
 
The problem is how to determine whether knowing how to use a particular  
look-up table is really trivial, or should at the *minimum* be linked.
