Orphan page that has no potential and is of a number that is not noteable Descendall 05:14, 13 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- This afd nomination was orphaned. Listing now. —Crypticbot (operator) 13:01, 13 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- COMMENT I actually nominated this a few days ago, but in putting it on this page, I accidently erased all the other nominations. Someone saw what I did and reverted, assuming that I was a vandal. Consequentially, this has not been listed for over a few minutes. I am putting it back up. Descendall 08:14, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- ’Twas I who did the revert with the comment about vandalism. My apologies for the remark, but it did look like vandalism. When you post anything to a page, please use the preview button before posting, or at least read your post after saving. ♠DanMS 18:48, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete, not every number can be notable simply because it's been used somewhere. Les Miserables#Cultural references covers the extent of its use in this context adequately. Bobet 13:40, 13 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete per Bobet. Minor points in books and plays need to be covered in their context. - Mgm|(talk) 15:49, 13 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete — Inconsequential factoid. — RJH 17:18, 13 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- I don't understand why everyone's voting delete, because no one has suggested why a merge to Les Miserables would be unsatisfactory. Jacqui ★ 00:39, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete The info is already included in the page for Les Miserables so there's no need to keep this page around. --Bachrach44 01:50, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. Prisoner 24601 might be a good redirect, but not this. By naming conventions, I guess this should be a year, and that year certainly does not warrant an article. Likewise the number or the zip code (just out of idle curisoity, anyone know what town's zip code that is?). -R. fiend 04:52, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete as per R. fiend. (By the way, 24601 is Amonate, VA per Google Maps.) MCB 06:42, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Thanks. -R. fiend 14:14, 14 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete. This is an extraordinary use of an encyclopedia page. encephalon 09:42, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - possibly the biggest waste of server space ever :) Akamad 09:54, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - I've added the 24601 reference to the Plot of Les Misérables page. --Frekja 10:13, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- It's a marginally interesting number in that it's been given references in a number of other works (System Shock, for example). But that's "marginal" with a lower-case "m", and the appropriate place for references like this is in the pages for individual works, so I don't think we gain anything by having this article here. Delete. — Haeleth Talk 18:04, 15 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
- Redirect to Les Mis. -- SCZenz 04:21, 18 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
