Monica (religion)
I am adding this in lieu of User:67.52.188.182 who has the article on Speedy, which was incorrect, and so I moved it to VfD.

 * I don't see any reason why we shouldn't Keep this one. Mo0 06:25, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete, non-notable & likely vanity; Googling
 * "Monica Chung" worship OR goddess
 * yields 8 hits; 6 are listings containing "discussion about Monica Chung, the Korean-American goddess living in cyberspace" (are all descriptions of alt.religion.monica?), other two (w/ no apparent relationship) are FanFiction.Net Story : Seven Worlds in One World (6-month-old cache) and a prayer bulletin board.

 * Probably because the Monica craze predates the widespread pickup of the WWW. Probably because it has faded since its early 90s heyday.... --JebeddiahSpringfield 21:39, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Comment, If its a Korean 'religion', google won't find English results. Yet if its encyclopedic enough for the Korean wikipedia, I believe its worth having a translation in English wikipedia.  I'd like to find out more before deleting this.  If anyone knows Korean, could they give me some idea of this?  &mdash; siro  &chi;  o  10:04, Nov 2, 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete: It's a joke religion on and in newsgroups. Ha.  Ha.  Very good.  Clever clever.  Now, let's not get confused and think that makes it an entry for the ages, or for the age.  Geogre 17:42, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Keep: We already have other joke religions (Discordianism,Church of the SubGenius,Category:Joke religions), and another joke religion in/on Usenet (Kibology). I think this is an interesting part of the earlier history of the Internet, before it got too popular. --JebeddiahSpringfield 21:39, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)
 * Delete. Non-notable. Fire Star 21:22, 2 Nov 2004 (UTC)
