A deletion proposal was removed without explanation. That PROD said "Clear fail of Notability (numbers)", and that seems to me to sum it up. The editor who uses the pseudonym "JamesBWatson" (talk) 10:41, 28 August 2015 (UTC)

 * Well I spent a little while looking for a good redirect target. The number is surprisingly important, but not notable enough.  Having said surprisingly it is a CITRIX error number and the next prime after a Mersenne prime,  these are both due to it being just above a a 2 power, XB000000B).  It is also a member (the 32nd) of a complete sequence, documented at, again linked to being the next prime after a 2 power. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 14:12, 28 August 2015 (UTC).


 * Maybe redirect to Complete_sequence All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 14:25, 28 August 2015 (UTC).


 * Delete as prodder. I still don't think it passes Notability (numbers). "Next prime after a power of two" (or various nearly equivalent formulations) is one sort-of-interesting property in which it's only the 30th or so entry, and can be expressed more simply as "smallest prime number not expressible as a signed long", but what I want to see is two or more actually-interesting properties in which it's in the first five numbers. —David Eppstein (talk) 15:57, 28 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Depending on byte length of course. All the best: Rich Farmbrough, 21:52, 28 August 2015 (UTC).


 * Weak delete or redirect. It's not like it's 8675309 or some such.  davidwr/  (talk)/(contribs)  03:12, 29 August 2015 (UTC)
 * delete I don’t see it being discussed at the suggested redirect target, which also is a hidden anchor, so anyone stumbling across it and following the redirect will be likely confused as to what bit of that article is relevant. No other plausible target suggests itself and it is certainly not independently notable.-- JohnBlackburne wordsdeeds 02:23, 30 August 2015 (UTC)
 * Delete Just not notable, per above. PianoDan (talk) 13:33, 1 September 2015 (UTC)
