Delete: this would be a rare misspelling per (cardboardbox*1000),cardboard box at Google Ngram Viewer. Policy: WT:CFI#Spellings. --Dan Polansky (talk) 06:49, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

If you don't use *1000 it doesn't get off the bottom of the scale. Delete. DonnanZ (talk) 12:16, 14 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
To correct myself a little: In fact, the frequency ratio of 1000 is not so bad for a common misspelling. However, when I looked at google books:"cardboardbox", these were usually instances of "cardboard-box" or "cardboard box" so the actual frequency ratio is going to be much worse. --Dan Polansky (talk) 04:55, 15 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]
