No offense, but 4pq1injbok is no Hardy, and PrimeFan is no Ramanujan. A few months ago I would've agreed with the goal stated at WikiProject Numbers, for every integer from 1 to 1024 to have its own article. But now I think there are a lot of numbers between 100 and 1000 that don't honestly deserve

Their's got to be a maximum number of electrons an atom can possibly have. Element 129 I can buy, but at some point their's got to be a maximum. But even if their is an Element 129 out their to be discovered, wouldn't it be better to comment out those lines about atomic numbers until the element at

Interestingly, this "social brain hypothesis" predicts that around the time our ancestors evolved the capacity for fifth-order intentionality their community sizes would have exceeded about 120 individuals. Religion may have evolved to provide the mechanism for bonding them into a coherent social

Sure. I'm certainly not arguing for an article for 123 on account of this alone; indeed it rather defeats the purpose. If we can find enough proper properties of 123, then by all means it deserves an article. Still, we're bound to have some least integer without an article, be it 123 or not.

The USian pronunciation is a clear minority, so I've moved this to have the "and". Perhaps people can tackle the other number articles. I am also concerned about the amount of stuff from the bible that's been put in -- what does it tell us about the number? ---
361:, there is a table of names to use for women who live up to 200 years. However, the name for a 120-year-old-ian is easy to mis-interpret because of how the element "mega" is best interpreted. Other possibilites, both with dis-advantages, are: 500:
In the first instance, it was mentioned by a friend as the maximum size that a community can work at and still be highly cohesive. He'd heard it from a friend of his who works in environmental science. It was suggested that

This is an issue that will become more important as time progresses, what with lengthening lifespans. I for one am stumped on even giving a suggestion.
