Contested prod. Per WP:NUMBER, articles on numbers over 1000 are discouraged unless they have three interesting properties, which are also fairly rare. We do not, for example, have articles on every prime; we have a list of primes.

Delete Four properties are claimed here.

  1. is arbitrary; this is a Fermat prime +2; every number is a Fermat prime + something.
  2. , the twin prime, really adds little to (1). Between them they amount to one, (maybe 1.5) interesting property.
  3. is trivial; given Goldbach's conjecture, it amounts to 65539 has digits which sum to an even number less a hundred trillion; half of all the numbers which are not too long to be page titles.
  4. is numerology. Septentrionalis PMAnderson 17:19, 26 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]
