Talk:46664

message: Since this has been sitting idle as a redirect to "Nelson Mandela" for 8 months, I'm going to try to move the more active but wrongly-labeled "46664" page to here ("46664 (number)"). --Brokenfixer 02:42, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

message: umm, some 70% of this entry is a list of people at some benefit concert.  What's the connection to "46664"? what was the concert protesting or supporting? looks completely unrelated without more "meat". --SeeFood 18:36, 26 Apr 2005 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree. The contents are now correctly stored under 46664 (number). Since noone has found anything encyclopedic to say about the year 46664 A.D., I took the liberty of making 46664 into a redirect to here. --Brokenfixer 03:10, 16 January 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Transferred from Talk: 46664 A.D.: 

message: According to Wikipedia naming conventions, articles about a specific year have the year number as their title, such as 2005, 1066, 476, 33 and 1.  Therefore this article, based on its title, should be about the year 46664 in the 47th milennium.  Comments?  --A D Monroe III 4 July 2005 16:19 (UTC)

message: The Apartheid authorities chose a bad number for Mandela since 46664 is a strong and easy to remember number. 46664 is a palindrome. In terms of locomotives, 4-6-4 (Hudson) and 4-6-6-4 (Challenger) are strong locomotives, and a 4-6-6-6-4 if it existed would be stronger still.
A better from the regime's point of view, ie. weaker choice, would be a number with no repeated digits, and no obvious order to the digits, eg 51364. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tabletop (talk • contribs) 07:27, 2 September 2006

thread_title:  Strong number 

message: No references are given for the names of the 2008 concert line up. Where has this information come from? The official website and nelson mandela's website do not have these performers listed. Can someone please cite some sources please? Marnifrances (talk) 09:46, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

message: Why not "four, triple six, four"? Would it not be more logical and easier mnemonically? Too evil?  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Diefromevileye (talk • contribs) 11:08, 18 July 2012 (UTC)

message: Looking at Google Maps satellite view it appears that "46664" has been etched into the prison site:
