List of restaurants with free wifi

 * – ( View AfD View log )

Non encyclopedic / notable --cocomonkilla (talk) (contrib) 06:53, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Non-encyclopedic, not notable. I don't know any coffee shops or diners that don't have wi-fi these days, so it's like listing all restaurants that serve grilled cheese sandwiches. Still, maybe if some sources could be added... --Kleopatra (talk) 06:56, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete. A quick Google search gave me 57 restaurants with free wifi- just in South Jersey. It simply isn't practical to have this list, and it doesn't serve any point. --Slon02 (talk) 07:06, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as highly impractical and non-encyclopedic. — focus 07:10, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak delete Looking at this it's more describing national chains which have wi-fi in a majority of their stores, not random places like Flo's Diner in Beehive, Utah. I'm seeing that this is on a rescue, so maybe if this is changed to List of American national restaurant chains with free Wi-Fi and it is sourced well, we could be talking a keep.

 * Comment lists quite a few fast food chains that have wifi, and I'm sure that plenty other sources could be found. However, that brings me back to the point I was making, would such a list be needed? --Slon02 (talk) 08:12, 1 January 2011 (UTC)

 * Delete, Wikipedia is neither a directory nor a how-to-guide. --Soman (talk) 11:27, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Not information of lasting value, since the policies of restaurants will change all the time. Besides I am not sure that every Denney's or McDonald's does offer free WiFi since many are franchises.Kitfoxxe (talk) 12:09, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete This would be like List of eating establishments that have publicly accessible toilet facilities. Useful but not encyclopedic.--Pontificalibus (talk) 12:17, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete The topic may be notable, but is probably not encyclopedic. Kleopatra's example of grilled cheese sandwiches and Pontificalibus' example of toilets are appropriate. I don't see any distinction that would allow a free wifi list but would not allow a free toilet list. YardsGreen (talk) 12:38, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete as there are no sources, and even if there were, it is highly unlikely that every single McDonald's in North America has free WiFi, so this is an impracticable list.  :.:∙:∙∙:∙:.:&#124; pepper &#124; :.:∙:∙∙:∙:.:  15:32, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete Sorry for hopping on a bandwagon full of snow, but this is not encyclopedic. ɠǀɳ̩ςεΝɡ  bomb  16:52, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete- As others have pointed out, this list is trivial and unmaintainable. Reyk  YO!  22:25, 1 January 2011 (UTC)
