:::'''Comment''' The difference being that there are [[WP:RS|reliable sources]] for hotspot and television, and I can find nothing for "coldspot". For example, when I look on Google News for "coldspot"[http://news.google.com/archivesearch?q=coldspot], all the top results are for a refrigerator company by that name. In fact, if I search for "coldspot wifi", I ''still'' get results for the refrigerator. Even a plain Google search, while it does turn up quite a few sites using the term, doesn't suggest any sources that would count as reliable.

- Coldspot (Wi-Fi) (edit | talk | history | protect | delete | links | watch | logs | views) – (View log)
Unverifiable neologism. SchuminWeb (Talk) 18:22, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
- After I submitted this nomination, I looked around, and found out that Coldspot, which links as a redirect to Coldspot (Wi-Fi), was actually the subject of a previous AFD discussion that ended in deletion. Therefore we might be able to speedy this under A4... SchuminWeb (Talk) 18:29, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
- keep. Though I guess I would say that as the article creator! Neologism it may be, that doesn't make the subject unnotable. As suggested in the article, coldspots will be a more valuble subject than hotspots, as there will be a a complete web. We currently talk about mobile phone "no signal areas", so why not Wi-Fi Coldspots? L.J.Skinnerwot|I did 21:42, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
- Delete. Non-notable, uncited (bar hearsay), admitted neoligism, OR, probably vanity entry, crystal-ball-gazing and apparent attempt to circumvent previous deletion decision (so speedy delete). Andy Mabbett 22:43, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
- Off-topic Pigsonthewing. Please note[1]. The previous page(s) were created and deleted before I was even a member on wiki![2]. Do not throw accusations around without checking your facts. Additionally, every word is a neologism at some point! That's what it means: neo = new, logos = word. L.J.Skinnerwot|I did 23:04, 25 April 2007 (UTC)
- Indeed, Hotspot itself is a neologism, albeit in common useage. As is television, and many other expressions. L.J.Skinnerwot|I did 00:13, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
- Comment The difference being that there are reliable sources for hotspot and television, and I can find nothing for "coldspot". For example, when I look on Google News for "coldspot"[3], all the top results are for a refrigerator company by that name. In fact, if I search for "coldspot wifi", I still get results for the refrigerator. Even a plain Google search, while it does turn up quite a few sites using the term, doesn't suggest any sources that would count as reliable. Confusing Manifestation 00:34, 26 April 2007 (UTC)
