- Using Ngram Viewer cottonball does get off the bottom of the scale. DonnanZ (talk) 09:26, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
Isn't rarity of variants an RFV issue? Purplebackpack89 21:09, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
- RFD is basically a vote so we could get rid of the word dog if everyone agreed on it. But yeah I suppose the question is can we find some good citations that are unambiguously not typos/scannos. Equinox ◑ 21:25, 12 September 2019 (UTC)
- Keep: frequency ratio of 20 is not "exceedinly rare": (cottonball*20),cotton ball at Google Ngram Viewer. That would have to be at the very least 100 or even 500. --Dan Polansky (talk) 12:43, 21 September 2019 (UTC)
