	The old is it or isn't it ongoing question perhaps needs to be considered again unfortunately following {{User\|HerrAdolf}}'s recent . I suppose we need to actually agree how we determine going forward whether the protest movement still exists or not. I'm inclined to suggest it does, a quick Google search turned up which clearly refers to an individual mentioned as being a member of "a group called Anonymous that protests Church of Scientology events" but I'd have to consider it in more detail.

	However, when this edit is viewed in the context of this user's other edits I become more suspicious of their motives. For example , it does seem more appropriate to describe L. Ron Hubbard as "controversial" rather than "acclaimed". , I think Scientology is more widely considered to be "controversial" than "innovative" and , "controversial" would probably be a more widely accepted description of ] than "celebrated". ] (]) 10:08, 21 May 2009 (UTC)

Etymology

I can't see anything in the article about the etymology of the word "Chanology". Is it derived from 4chan/711chan? If so (or even if not), surely there's a reliable source somewhere that can be found for it? Not knowing where the name came from is a serious limitation of the article. 2001:BB6:4713:4858:D58E:EA80:4B3D:5445 (talk) 13:19, 17 April 2022 (UTC)
