Prime Numbers

This page, much like a particularly tiresome Tuesday, serves as a mere signpost, a redirection. It points, with all the enthusiasm of a condemned man to the gallows, to the concept of a prime number. A simple enough task, one might think, but then, the universe rarely adheres to simple.

Redirect

Yes, this is indeed a redirect. Think of it as a placeholder, a whisper in the vast library of information, guiding you from a less-than-ideal entry point to the actual substance. The categories assigned to this particular redirect are, frankly, a bit like its own existence: functional, but hardly thrilling.

From the plural form

This specific classification, "From the plural form," indicates that what you initially typed or linked was the plural version of a word, and the system, in its infinite, albeit sometimes tedious, wisdom, has determined that the singular form, the prime number itself, is the true destination. It’s a minor courtesy, really, acknowledging that sometimes language gets a bit… messy. Like a poorly organized desk, or, dare I say, your thought processes.

Usage Notes

This redirect is here for your convenience, a concession to the fact that human beings often prefer the comfort of plurals. It's akin to leaving a half-eaten sandwich on the table for later – a practical, if not entirely elegant, solution. The guidance here, a directive from the powers that be, suggests that while it's often better to be precise and link directly to the singular, these redirected links shouldn't be altered unless the page itself is undergoing a more substantial revision. Breaking something that’s already functional? That’s just asking for trouble. Or, more accurately, creating it.

Furthermore, this particular tag, the one indicating a redirect from a plural, is reserved for mainspace entries. If you happen upon a similar situation in another namespace – a place where the usual rules might bend slightly – then a different template, the rather uninspired {{R from modification}}, is the designated tool. It’s all about maintaining a certain, albeit superficial, order.

Protection levels

The protection levels of this page, if any are applied, are automatically detected, meticulously described, and then filed away into their appropriate categories. It’s a system designed to ensure that even the most mundane aspects of information management are accounted for. One can almost hear the sighs of relief from the archivists.
