Yeah. I just do the "don't bite" bit. Example, I came across this edit recently: http://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Bob_Randall&diff=316461923&oldid=310597871 Ok, now that text doesn't really belong. It's trivia. It's not notable. It's even poorly written. But I left it. I couldn't see much benefit in hurting some primary school kid's feelings over it. It's only *slightly* too trivial, and definitely not in a harmful way. Maybe if I come across it in a month or two I'll kill it then...but no reason to tread on this kid's toes so quickly.
