Result: Yes to all 9 proposed mergers. PrimeHunter 00:27, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
In view of Wikipedia:Merging and moving pages#Merging, I propose to merge "x prime" into "x number" for the following small "x prime" stubs:
highly cototient prime into highly cototient number, star prime into star number, self prime into self number, Happy prime into Happy number, Lucas prime into Lucas number, Lucky prime into Lucky number, Motzkin prime into Motzkin number, Thabit prime into Thabit number, and Bell prime (a little more content) into Bell number.
The proposed mergers are so similar that I suggest comments are placed together on this page. PrimeHunter 18:16, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
Many of these "x prime" only have 2 lines saying: "A x prime is a x number which is prime. The first x primes are ...". Texts like this would fit well in "x number" where the number form is defined. Merging leaves a redirect on "x prime", so it can still be searched and existing links will work. Wikipedia is not a dictionary, but if more information is added later for some x, then "x prime" might get its own article again.
The stubs were mostly made around a year ago by Giftlite (whom I have notified), with few or no edits since. Most of the stubs are about rarely mentioned prime forms. Some of the names appear to have no Google hits outside Wikipedia and clones, and OEIS (which seems to accept almost any submission). There are many other "x numbers" for which mathematicians use the term "x primes" (Mersenne, Fermat, Fibonacci, ...), but I don't think Wikipedia should be first to use the name for any x. I suggest the normal merge redirect is placed on undocumented names, but that "x number" mentions which are primes without calling them "x primes". PrimeHunter 18:16, 29 October 2006 (UTC)
I am guessing this article could use a graphical representation of a few of those star numbers represented in a figure form? Would I be correct? -- Cimon Avaro; on a pogostick. ( talk) 04:32, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
