Paper church

This appears to be a neologism and I can find no evidence of the term being used in this sense anywhere but this page. Elembis 21:46, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Delete, per nom. The only paper churches I can find in Google seem to actually be made of paper. --Ogdred 22:50, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Rename to Online Church - There appear to be a few phrases used to describe such organisations but no particular one in common usage, there are very few such organisations and there is already an article on the Universal Life Church which is the main organisation carrying out these postal\online ordinations and indeed online exorcisms [1] - maybe it would be better if the article was renamed to something such as Remote Ordination or Online and Postal Ordinations or Online Church, Online Church is a term I've come across a number of times before although Wikipedia doesn't seem to have an article on it although there are a number of churches that in one way or other meet the criteria and which it is used for.--Lord of the Isles 23:16, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, but did you look at the article? The entire text is:

A paper church is a church that ordains ministers through the mail, usually for a fee. A well known example is the Universal Life Church (which performs the ordinations for free.)

There isn't any content there at all; there doesn't seem much point in renaming a stub. --Ogdred 23:24, 10 September 2006 (UTC)[reply]
