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)

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). Lennart97 (talk) 14:52, 8 December 2021 (UTC)
 * Since there seems to be no opposition, I've performed the merge. Lennart97 (talk) 15:44, 17 December 2021 (UTC)
