    Re: S-tables: where to have a look at them?

    The article, or at least the list of tabular methods, has now been cleaned up:  https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sight_reduction#Tabular_sight_reduction.  With a few additions and dates added.

    It does need revision, yes. Right now that article is a bit of an orphan that gets very little traffic, and it has had little editing in the time since it was created by Andres Ruiz back in the summer of 2015. The article is misleading in many ways. It was an attempt to publicize the hav-Doniol method of sight reduction, severely distorting the significance of that method at the expense of history and common practice.
