Talk:280 (number)

Removed tidbit

in responce to: "Removed tidbit about *288 on Verizon phones (it was spelled wrong, lacked citation and was put in the wrong place anyway)" so, where would you put it? you find a verizion phone and try it.....nothing on google or ask.com says it, so how could it be cited. The people should know! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 137.141.232.171 (talk) 23:34, 2006 October 27 (UTC)

Where would you put it? On the same line as the other things about 288, NOT below the line about 289.

How could it be cited? You can cite the owner's manual. Or maybe there's a newspaper article somewhere announcing the new feature. CompositeFan 22:18, 30 October 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Merger proposal

I propose merging 284 (number) into 280 (number), in the same way that other non-notable numbers in the 280-290 range are discussed there. As far as I can see, WP:NNUMBER is not met. The only genuinely interesting mathematical property of 284 is that with 220 it forms the lowest pair of amicable numbers; David Wells's Dictionary of Curious and Interesting Numbers and What's Special About This Number? mention this but no other interesting properties. That's not enough to justify a separate article and we can instead just mention this property at 280 (number)#284. Lennart97 (talk) 14:52, 8 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Since there seems to be no opposition, I've performed the merge. Lennart97 (talk) 15:44, 17 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
