Delete or Redirect to Polygonal number:No sources supporting notability except OEIS since May 2011. See also Notability/Noticeboard/Archive 5 Inspector (talk) 08:11, 23 December 2012 (UTC)


 * Redirect to Polygonal number Except for a single [//sites.google.com/site/cplusplusalphasolutions/findnthmyriagonalnumber code snippet] and the entry in OEIS, I could find no mention of myriagonal numbers independent of Wikipedia. There is not enough notability for a standalone article, but the concept is verifiable. I've added myriagonal numbers to the Table of values in the Polygonal number article for the potential redirect. Mark viking (talk) 17:05, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

 * Delete or redirect per WP:NUMBER. There are an infinite number of different kinds of polygons, and therefore an infinite number of different sequences of polygonal numbers; we can only keep a small finite number of the interesting ones, and this isn't one of them. —David Eppstein (talk) 02:08, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
 * Delete per David Eppstein, with the caveat that for interesting we should read notable, otherwise the smallest uninteresting number would be interesting enough to merit an article. In passing, "Myriagonal" and "Myriagon" are unknown to ZMATH.  Deltahedron (talk) 07:27, 24 December 2012 (UTC)
