Nomination of Portal:Geometry for deletion

A discussion is taking place as to whether Portal:Geometry is suitable for inclusion in Wikipedia according to Wikipedia's policies and guidelines or whether it should be deleted.

The page will be discussed at Wikipedia:Miscellany for deletion/Portal:Geometry until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.

Users may edit the page during the discussion, including to improve the page to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the deletion notice from the top of the page. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 23:24, 2 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Sentence needs deletion

The Dimension section ends with this sentence:"Currently, the existence of the theoretical dimensions is purely defined by technical reasons; it is likely that further research may result in a geometric reason for the significance of 10 or 11 dimensions in the theory, lending credibility or possibly disproving string theory." The sentence suffers from being unsourced, poorly written, and wildly speculative. I see no value in it, especially since many of its phrases are gibberish: (currently), (theoretical dimensions),(purely defined),(technical reasons)(geometric reason), etc. It should be removed.40.142.185.108 (talk) 14:24, 5 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]
