many of the google hits for "ちょう待って" are actually ”超待ってた" 
etc. (but chou in hiragana) i.e. "I waited for so long!"

Not sure at all about deleting it, but certainly an entry for the kansaiben ちょう is appropriate. I think I'd be perplexed if I came across "ちょう待って", and having it explicit would be useful.

delete, or reduce to ちょう (somewhat dated ksb equiv to ちょっと)
