Removed pH

Per the page on pH, removed the statement that 14 is the limit of the pH scale. "Most substances have a pH in the range 0 to 14, although extremely acidic or basic substances may have pH < 0, or pH > 14." flowersofnight 06:46, 22 October 2005 (UTC)

14 is a number right?

Okay! So I decided to search for 14. Just "14". Was there a concensus not to type in the definition?. I need to know because, I was thinking of writing down the definition of many other numbers... (ex.: # A common graphic of the decimal numeral, number fourteen. ) ... doing the same for all the other numbers. --CyclePat 22:22, 8 November 2005 (UTC)

The article does define 14 right up front, though, when it says
14 (fourteen) is the natural number following 13 and preceding 15.
We don't discuss "14" as a numeral because there's not much to say about it that's not actually about its digits 1 and 4. Each of these has a section on the glyph; 4 (number) indeed begins
4 (four) is a number, numeral, and glyph. It is the natural number following 3 and preceding 5.
and 1 (number) begins similarly. 4pq1injbok 21:57, 10 November 2005 (UTC)

Johan Cruijff is a legend, Thierry Henry is not. I don't think he's relevant enough to be in this article as an example.

14 as lucky/unlucky

The article has no sources nor does it make clear why 14 is both lucky and unlucky? Is it generational, is it specific, is there a source? That might be helpful to clear things up XinJeisan (talk) 18:31, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
