This is not my field but I believe the term "preceptor" has a well known and clear meaning in medical education. That's the first place I heard it and where I hear it used most often. I'm sure there are better sources but here's the entry from <medical.merriam-webster.com>: "a practicing physician who gives personal instruction, training, and supervision to a medical student or young physician" JOWhitlock (talk) 19:10, 5 December 2007 (UTC)
Merge with Preceptory
editThe Preceptory article does not present sufficient information to stand on its own. It should be merged with this article. Neelix (talk) 12:29, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
- Disagree. one is a description of a person, and his job. The other has geographic implications which may, with sufficient editing, be presentable on a map and form a summary of locations and perhaps incomes.
- I agree that both articles are very light on content, but the solution there is to expand each of them according to their natural distinction.--Brunnian (talk) 14:44, 6 September 2009 (UTC)
Faux dab?
editThis article seems to be a disambiguation page in disguise, describing several unrelated concepts with the same name—essentially, a WP:CONCEPTDAB where there really shouldn't be one. I'm wondering how to proceed. Perhaps spinning off the individual sections into articles and reformatting this as a proper dab? Pinging dab expert BD2412. I've seen a fair number of disambiguation pages that should become conceptdabs, but never anything like this. --BDD (talk) 18:10, 17 November 2015 (UTC)
- A Yes, exactly.
- B There have also been various books and journals by this title (or "The Preceptor" etc.) that should be linked from here once it's a proper dab. — LlywelynII 22:11, 21 November 2022 (UTC)
