A parody of Names of large numbers. Never before have I seen a Wikipedia article parody another Wikipedia article. Georgia guy (talk) 22:05, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
This page contains material that is kept because it is considered humorous. Such material is not meant to be taken seriously. |
As all our collective comments except the first editor's do not consider this to be a parody, and we have moved on to consider instead:

It's no longer only about cardinal numbers, so that early section has been headed appropriately. And it's now not only a parallel to part of Names of large numbers, it states names of numbers and quantities idiosyncratic to numerical smallness. Physics and cosmology sections have been added. More sections may be added by various editors. Pandelver (talk) 00:47, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I recently deleted the physics sections, see Talk:Names of small numbers. I don't think that including "small quantities" is a good direction to move in, because "small quantities" is not a meaningful concept, and also because "small numbers" and "small quantities" are two different topics that are almost unrelated. (IMO.) See talk page for more elaboration. :-) --Steve (talk) 06:06, 16 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
