Template talk:Irrational number

Recent amendments

I want to scrutinize the current contents and growth of this template. These are my hypotheses:

1. Irrational numbers are a meaningful category within the reals (no i, or any other number systems)
2. "Almost all" reals are irrational (only prominent representatives in the template, most prominent: πぱい)
3. All roots are irrational, except for respective powers of rationals
4. Transcendental functions do not preserve rationals
5. For an overview, consult the article on irrational numbers

Accordingly, I suggest to

• remove a good deal of the many scarcely known constants, some roots and ln-s, and to
• stop adding new, only scarcely known constants to the template, but rather to the article on irrationals, and to
• agree on some ordering of the entries (value, alphabetically, importance, ...).

Especially point #2 allows for broad discussions, and the others are no axioms, of course. Purgy (talk) 07:50, 23 January 2019 (UTC)
