• Because there's an infinite number of obscure numbers. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 06:28, 17 May 2006 (UTC)
  • This argument never really made sense to me. Sure, there are infinitely many numbers. But infinity numbers will never be in Wikipedia, because we can only contribute finitely many of them. I think a better argument is that people aren't likely to look up big random numbers like 1020408163206530612244897959183673469387755 (smallest 5-parasitic number) directly, so those potential articles should be merged into articles about their properties. But I really don't think any numbers are "non-notable". As WP:WINI says, any criterion would be arbitrary, so I pick this one: numbers people bother to write more than stub information about.

    • WikiProject Numbers states that atleast 3 interesting properties must be stated about a number to back its notability and hence inclusion in Wikipedia. How many of such large numbers will have such properties? I guess very few. -Ambuj Saxena (talk) 12:47, 20 May 2006 (UTC)
