There exist pages, containing information that demonstrates notability, for the square roots of 2, 3, 5, 6, and 7. These should be incorporated into Wikipedia project numbers, they are clearly within our realm of interest. We should consider whether lists of square root values would make sense.

Yes, definitely, but I thought they were already included? Allan Nonymous (talk) 18:52, 9 June 2026 (UTC)

Currently the short descriptions of numbers from 301 to 399 on the 300 page is organized into sentences, while the 400 and 500 pages have lists. While I am generally a fan of paragraph style, some of the factoids, especially if they involve equations, are confusing in paragraphs. I also think that there should be consistancy with the lists at least up through 900. The lists for 600, 700, 800, and 900 are very confusing and I am happy to update them, but I don't know whether the 300 page or 400 and 500 page format is preferred.

Clarification, I mean the lists on the 400 and 500 pages have a list of bullets for each number. Riverskip (talk) 23:26, 9 June 2026 (UTC)

IMO, I would say paragraph style is better, with line breaks for certain equations. Allan Nonymous (talk) 19:00, 26 June 2026 (UTC)
