Talk:1999 (number)

Why does 1999 (as well as 1993 and 1997, and maybe others too) redirect to "1000 (number)". I can see somebody tried to remove this a while ago and got marked as a spammer, so I won't repeat that course.

Still though, seems like a silly thing to do - somebody browsing to "1999" is unlikely to want to be redirected to "1000" and be shown the latter's factorisation etc.

In my humble opinion, this page (as well as the others mentioned above) should either be replaced with relavent information (e.g. "1999 is the 303rd prime number" etc.), or, otherwise, the page should be deleted. In its current form, with a silly redirect, it seems rather pointless.
