Talk:16 (number)

• What is the point in this page - it is, and as far as I can see always will be, a purely dictionary-definition page

What is the point in Wikipedia? After seeing what just happened to lower numbers, it would surprise me if not interesting facts about sixteen may spring up.

That said, I agree that number articles really only need to be created for interesting numbers. The English language numerals stop at twenty - that would seem like a suitable limit. -- Egil 11:47 Apr 10, 2003 (UTC)

You can prove by contradiction that there are no uninteresting numbers. Suppose that x is the largest interesting number, then by definition x+1 is the smallest uninteresting number. But then x+1 is interesting by being the smallest uninteresting number. Therefore, by contradiction, there are no uninteresting numbers. Enjoy! -- Ams80 22:00 Apr 10, 2003 (UTC)

Invalid proof! Suppose 9 is uninteresting but 10 is the largest interesting number, then you say 11 is the small uninteresting... but 9 is less than 11! (but yes the proof could be made to work.) Pcb21 11:41 13 Jun 2003 (UTC)

I think numbers have as much need for definition and explanation as any other item in Wikipedia. IanUK 18:02, 24 August 2006 (UTC)

I believe looking at the page now it is far more than a dicitionary definition page. *smiley face* EchetusXe (talk) 18:16, 6 July 2008 (UTC)

"Minimum age at when its legal to have sex"?

What does this mean? The age at which it's legal to have a gender? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Klaws (talk • contribs) 19:07, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
