Talk:100 (number)

Quote from the article:

In English slang, adding the number 100 to a particular skill or subject denotes introductory knowledge ("Physics 100", "Soccer 100"), akin to the name of a first year university subject.

I believe it is actually 101 which is added to the subject to denote basic or introductory knowledge. --Kaltaugh (talk) 21:48, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

What was the rationale for turning this article into a redirect for Hundred? One hundred is a specific numeric entity, while hundred is a more general entity. Therefore, each should have its own article, in my opinion. -- Anonymous UserThis article is fairly pointless - in particular, looks like everything under 'In other fields' is an absolute waste of disk space. Wikipedia should not become repository of random bits of useless information - which it will if anyone is allowed to post an article about ANYTHING. This article is fairly analogous to posting an article about boxes, and having a whole section related to boxes in various fields - eg:- boxes in the shoe industry - most new shoes come in boxes- boxes in the software industry - shrinkwrap software comes in boxes- etc, etc -- Another anonymous user  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.11.72.4 (talk) 07:08, 15 February 2008 (UTC) s

disambiguation for other uses

I think this article should be about the mathematical properties of the number 100. all other meanings for it should be in other articles, with links from a disambig page, and a DAB at the top of this page. i want to do this for a lot of numbers, but i see so many number articles with other uses documented, that im hesitant to change the direction of these articles without consensus. i think this is WP policy, but again what should be and what is are 2 different things.
