Talk:146
The following information has failed Wiktionary's deletion process (permalink).
It should not be re-entered without careful consideration.
This is just a number. I can't even see any use for it to be on Wiktionary. Everybody knows that 146 is a number and there is no meaning for it or any special use for this number. Pkbwcgs (talk) 16:20, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
Also: 145, 144, 143, 142, 141, 140, 139, 138, 137, 136, 135, 134, 133, 132, 131, 130, 129, 128, 127, 126, 124, 123, 122, 120, 119, 118, 148, 149, 150, 151, 152, 153 and 154. These should be all deleted for the same reason. All these pages were created by IP addresses. Pkbwcgs (talk) 16:56, 23 February 2017 (UTC)
- Given our previous discussions concluding that we should not have any numbers over 100, these should be speedy deletion cases. bd2412 T 03:38, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
- Agree with BD. We might also want to semi-protect some of the lower ones to avoid the well-meaning but errant creation by new folks who are unaware. - TheDaveRoss 13:30, 24 February 2017 (UTC)
- Delete; a relating discussion is at Talk:105. 146 entry does not show any meaning other than the number. Delete the listed numbers as well. I don't object to speedy deletion, as a follow-up on Talk:105. A semi-protection may be in order. --Dan Polansky (talk) 13:22, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
Speedy deleted per previous consensus against having entries for numbers over 100 without idiomatic meanings. bd2412 T 17:32, 25 February 2017 (UTC)
- Post-closing note: I seem to recall from my youth that 143 was at some point used as shorthand for "I love you" (based on the 1, 4, and 3 representing the number of letters for each word in the phrase). There appear to be a smattering of sources for this proposition, e.g., 2011, Dr. Brian Snow, Santa Claus and Little Sister: “I love you. Love always, Your wishful daughter, Lupe. P.S. 143” I put Lupe's heart down and wiped my eyes. I learned from the girls that “143” meant “I love you” from the old military days when messages had to be quick and cheap on Western Union. Can anyone else find anything for this? If so, I'll restore the entry for this idiomatic sense. bd2412 T 02:02, 26 February 2017 (UTC)

Delete all these numbers for the same reasons. There is an endless pile of numbers created by IPs and bad users. Pkbwcgs (talk) 13:43, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
- I believe we agreed to have all numbers up to 100. bd2412 T 23:55, 27 February 2017 (UTC)
