Prime is an alternative term for the Golden Number.

For proof, read the Book of Common Prayer of the Church of England (preface, Easter part), or the Annexe to the Calendar Act 1750, or the Statute Law Database (when corrected); or Google for "Golden Number, or Prime".

Shouldn't also the prime grade of beef be in here? -t —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.91.48.153 (talk) 18:30, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

Disambiguation pages are not intended for every connection the term might appear in. They are an aid to locate the right Wikipedia article and finding beef should not require a link from here. PrimeHunter 23:55, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Personal prime?

Shouldn't there be an entry for prime in the context, for example, of being "in one's prime"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.71.245.81 (talk) 02:26, 29 October 2007 (UTC)

Wikipedia is not a dictionary and disambiguation pages are not intended for every connection the term might appear in. They are an aid to locate the right Wikipedia article and I don't think there is a meaningful article to link to, or that people will search on "prime" when they are looking for information about that meaning.
