Verducianism

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  AfD statistics)

Fictional religion supposedly appearing on a television show, presumably on one or two episodes. I originally prodded (prod was removed one hour after it was placed) because of a complete lack of reliable sources; with so few sources, I seriously doubt that this is a likely redirect target.

 * Redirect to series show or, if it exists, episode article. --EEMIV (talk) 14:49, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Why? Nyttend (talk) 15:08, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * It's a plausible search term. --EEMIV (talk) 23:55, 19 December 2009 (UTC)


 * Provisional Delete. I don't see any sourcing that merits inclusion in the shows article.  If between now and close someone finds something some variation of redirect or merge might work, but if not delete.--Cube lurker (talk) 15:47, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the TV show's main article, on the basis that this term might be searched and it would be helpful to do a simple redirect rather than have no information available at all. Lithorien (talk) 16:35, 14 December 2009 (UTC)
 * Delete and absolutely no redirect. It was a joke as part of (surprise) last Thursday's episode of 30 Rock.  Some of the shows writers were telling a gullible co-worker that they couldn't participate in the Secret Santa gift-giving, and they said that it was "verducianism".  I don't see it as a search term for Wikipedia.  If people want to look up the word, there's this thing called "Google" that will direct them to a 30 Rock website.

 * Delete Wikipedia is not for things that were made up one day. It doesn't matter that this was made up in a fictional universe. The religion has no actual practioners and doesn't extend past the single episode it appeared it. A redirect would give it undue weight. - Mgm|(talk) 12:39, 15 December 2009 (UTC)
