Re: Church of Google
Sure thing. As you can see from the article's deletion log, it's been deleted on two occassions. In my case, I was acting under the criteria for speedy deletion, a limited set of circumstances under which administrators can delete pages "on sight" -- the particular criterion applied in this case was A7, which governs articles that don't apparently assert the notability of their subjects. You may get some benefit from seeing Why was my page deleted? If you feel that the group would satisfy guidelines in WP:BIO or WP:ORG, you might be able to convince me of that. Otherwise, if you feel I'm being unreasonable, you're free to make a request at deletion review. Thanks for your time. Luna Santin 23:19, 19 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Hm... maybe, but I'm not yet convinced. That article doesn't make any reference to a "Church of Google," and appeared to be posing a "what if?" scenario to make a point, more than anything. While there might well be such a philosophy, unless it's been clearly mentioned by mainstream sources of some sort, any Wikipedia article on the matter is likely going to be original research. Anything else I should see? Luna Santin 02:34, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Fair enough. In my case, it still seems like original research. Since I don't imagine you'll be convinced by that, I'd encourage you to take your case to deletion review for community consensus. Respectfully, Luna Santin 11:43, 20 December 2006 (UTC)
