No coverage about nine-dimensional space, just "n-dimensional space". Other articles like 9-cube are probably also unnecessary, but those have clear redirect targets (such as Hypercube); I'm not sure where (other than Dimension) this could redirect to.

• Delete and restore redirect for all the same reasons given in the first AfD. This could be a G4 speedy deletion; much of the text and images are identical to the deleted version, which also had some additional non-notable material on 8-spheres and superstrings. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:15, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Last time this article was AfD'd, it got redirected to "n-dimensional space", but that's now just a redirect to "Dimension." Redirects are cheap, so I guess we could do that, but I don't see a particular reason to bother. Agree it's a G4 speedy candidate. PianoDan (talk) 00:18, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Delete Not one of the dimensions that's distinguished by having a cross product, a normed division algebra, etc. Yes, you can define ${\displaystyle \mathbb {R} ^{9}}$; what of it? It's conceivable that somebody might talk about "nine-dimensional space" as part of ten-dimensional spacetime, but the nature of relativity makes that an awkward and artificial split. Someone looking for superstring theory would look for "superstring theory", not "nine-dimensional space". XOR'easter (talk) 00:41, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Speedy delete Did those people who suggested CSD mean to refer to G4? This creator doesn't seem to be a sockpuppet. –LaundryPizza03 (dc̄) 00:53, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Yes, fixed, thanks for the catch. —David Eppstein (talk) 00:57, 9 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
