Mathematics Template‑class | |||||||

I have rearranged the box to express this; if anyone sees any exceptions, they can always do something about it, but none of the ledes suggested that any of these classes were of interest beyond the challenge of finding their members or some satisfaction that some number has such a property. I suppose that some, such as repunits are moderately interesting polynomials, but I saw nothing to make me hesitate long. PJTraill ( talk) 20:14, 23 January 2014 (UTC)
I see that user:MagistraMundi has added Pancake number to Template:Classes_of_natural_numbers, as a link to Pancake sorting, which does not however seem to define “Pancake number”. Perhaps it would be helpful if he (or someone else) were to create the page Pancake number as a redirect to Pancake sorting#Pancake number, to ensure that that anchor refers to a definitions in that article and to link Template:Classes_of_natural_numbers to the new page. All presuming pancake numbers really are sufficiently notable! PJTraill ( talk) 21:58, 24 March 2014 (UTC)
Someone should fix the layout of the template. The left-hand side with the sub-category names is not wide enough to fit nicely on most resolutions. Also, I've noticed this is a theme with templates of this nature. If someone has any expertise on the subject, please leave a comment or contribute. Unfortunately I do not know enough about templating to help at the moment. Thanks. 137.124.161.51 ( talk) 21:35, 27 January 2016 (UTC)
@
David Eppstein: I see you have been fighting
Canute-like against the rising tide in the form of waves of futile number classes!
Perhaps there is hope and we can more effectively declutter this, {{
prime number classes}} (where I see
Repunit,
Self number &c!), {{
Divisor classes}} and perhaps {{
Series (mathematics)}}.
These ideas occur to me:
I fear I do not have time for any of this at the moment, but I would be interested in any discussion. PJTraill ( talk) 21:41, 10 October 2018 (UTC)
