Frankly you are adopting the most idiotic philosophy where you assume there is something out there but it is unknowable.
It is impossible ever to know anything is fundamentally it is unknowable.
You are caught within Meno's paradox.

Ha-ha, what a funny way I've come up with to entertain myself today. I'll treat 'you' as real within 'empirical context', but we all know (I mean I and I know, I mean I know) that 'you' aren't actually real, wink wink.

Re: Is a Perfect Circle Real?
Notice how not only the questions cycle through eachother but also the words cycle as well...a perfect circle can only be assumed as one cannot see it circumference as it would be the edge of reality itself.
This is no different than assuming one assumptions, which is a loop, but never seeing beyond it.
The perfect circle, is assumed both as a proposition and the propositions that propositions contain.
This doesn't make it any less real, rather more "real", as all knowledge is assumed... thus the perfect circle as assumed exists dynamically through assuming phenomenon and statically as an image in the respect the observer is an image or variation of this Divine Plan or Divine Reason.

Re your first Wiki definition, I had pointed that definition has a quote that refer back to Kant.
So we should fall back on Kant as the authority instead of arguing over the secondary definition.
It is the same for the other definition you listed.
It's how we use English words today. You are on a philosophy forum so either adapt or fuck off.
I quoted from Kant;
I suggested you read the whole chapter on 'Phenomena versus Noumena'.
- The Concept of a Noumenon is thus a merely limiting Concept, the Function of which is to curb the pretensions of Sensibility; and it is therefore only of negative employment.
B311
The limit of a limit, necessitates a limit as not just circular but empty as well.
Example:
_________________________ Line A
Then observe that limit of this one line through line B
__________________________ Line B
And we get the limit as not just intrinsically empty but emptiness itself as line C:
__________________________ Line A
Line C
__________________________ Line B
Noumenon necessitates a paradox as through a double negation, where "the limit of a limit is no limit".

Re: Is a Perfect Circle Real?
"Is a real circle perfect?" is the other way round and not effective for my purpose.
My point for the OP is to support my OP, the ontology God is impossible to be real.
The critical attribute of the ontological God is absolutely-absolute and perfection, example from Descartes;
- Descartes argued that God's existence can be deduced from his nature, just as geometric ideas can be deduced from the nature of shapes—he used the deduction of the sizes of angles in a triangle as an example.
He suggested that the concept of God is that of a supremely perfect being, holding all perfections.
He seems to have assumed that existence is a predicate of a perfection. Thus, if the notion of God did not include existence, it would not be supremely perfect, as it would be lacking a perfection. Consequently, the notion of a supremely perfect God who does not exist, Descartes argues, is unintelligible. Therefore, according to his nature, God must exist.
In the above Descartes used the term 'ideas' which is specifically in the philosophical and platonic sense.
In the above Descartes deduced from the idea of a perfect triangle.
I am using one example, i.e. perfect circle.
Now if a perfect circle, perfect triangle or perfect-whatever-empirical-thing is impossible to be real empirically,
then, it is impossible for a perfect God to be empirically-philosophically* real.
* i.e. using various philosophical tools.

Noumenon necessitates a paradox as through a double negation, where "the limit of a limit is no limit".
To Kant, the thing-in-itself is LIMIT-B.
The noumenon is a limit-A which is within LIMIT-B.
The noumenon is a sub-limit of LIMIT-B
Ultimately Kant demonstrated both limit-A and LIMIT-B are fundamentally transcendental illusions when one attempts to reify these limits.
Thus there is no real LIMIT-C as the ultimate emptiness.
It is obvious at this point you do not understand Kant fully.

You think that Kant's philosophy is fundamentally just solipsism, and when pointed out that that's not the case, you call even Kant idiotic.
