254 (number)

 * – ( View AfD View log  Stats )

Only number pages that can have a good amount of meaningful content on them should be created, and this fails all three tests for WP:Notability (numbers). TheGoldenParadox (talk) 14:34, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
 *  Delete.  This page should be deleted because there is no reason for a page to be created that says 254 is the number following 253 and preceding 255, and a semiprime. This article does not add any real value to Wikipedia or Wikimedia as a whole and should not be covered as it is not a notable number. WikiProject Numbers says it is covering the following whole numbers; "Integers: Continuous from −1 to 200. Multiples of 100 from 300 to 900, then multiples of 1000 to 9000. Afterwards, only powers of 10 (from 1 up to 1012, higher than that only if they have a standard word name and commonly used SI prefix) and numbers with some remarkable mathematical property.." Fails WP:Notability (numbers); does not  have at least three unrelated interesting mathematical properties,have obvious cultural significance (e.g., as a lucky or unlucky number), and is not listed in a book such as David Wells's ''Dictionary of Curious and Interesting Numbers, or on Erich Friedman's "What's Special About This Number" webpage.

 * Delete. Fails WP:Notability (numbers) according to my usual test: does it appear early (say in the first five positions) of at least two unrelated sequences in OEIS that are both tagged as "nice"? I can't find even one such sequence. —David Eppstein (talk) 01:13, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Meh. Deletion is clearly inappropriate.  I lean toward Merge (back) to a combined , but that's not a matter for AfD. — Arthur Rubin  (talk) 03:47, 20 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - An insufficiently notable number which can be included under 251–259 in 250 (number). Cwmhiraeth (talk) 12:02, 21 February 2017 (UTC)
 * Delete - as my nomination. CAPTAIN RAJU  (✉)   19:02, 26 February 2017 (UTC)
