While not exactly a hoax (mathematically, the definition is correct), it is pretty clear that someone was trying to be funny and make a joke here. There is, of course, nothing any more special about dimension 9000 than about dimension 765,902,517. Even Wikipedia does not have enough space to have a separate article about every natural number. Speedy declined by an IP. Nsk92 (talk) 12:06, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

- Delete - Its a dictionary definition not an encyclopaedia article. ++ MortimerCat (talk) 12:22, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - apparent dictionary definition of an apparently undiscussed topic. A Google search of "nine thousandth dimension" gives
only the Wikipedia articleno results. [1]. Guest9999 (talk) 12:25, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply] - Delete, trivial information. There is nothing special about having exactly 9000 dimensions. JIP | Talk 14:12, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete Per my earlier PROD nomination, "Trivial. If this remains, I look forward to the appearance of articles 8999D, 8998D, 8997D, etc." The article is practically begging for someone to make a point. (This is not a threat: no such article is forthcoming from me.) —Largo Plazo (talk) 14:52, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
- Delete - it's actually wrong: "the space consisting of all such locations" is not called "the nine thousandth dimension", it's called "a nine-thousand dimensional space." But even if corrected, it would be trivial. JohnCD (talk) 14:57, 5 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
