[edit] Five and Nine
Hi DryaUnda,
I'm glad you're helping clean up the number pages. I had suggested the merging of 5 (disambiguation) and 5 (number) and the merging of 9 (disambiguation) and 9 (number) because there is much overlap between them. I don't believe the distinction is clear as to what should be listed on the number page as opposed to the disambiguation page. Do you have an alternate suggestion as to how this ambiguity might be avoided?

- Here's what I would do:
- If it's a number in the name of a proper noun (e.g., Seven of Nine, 2 + 2 = 5, etc.) and it has its own article, it goes in disambiguation.
- If it's the number itself in the context of something else (e.g., starfish usually have five arms, nine is often considered a lucky number) and it does not have its own article, it goes in the main number article. --DryaUnda 23:23, 10 July 2006 (UTC)

- That makes a lot of sense. Thanks for the well-thought response.
