Problem of definition[edit]
There seems to problems with university teacher (Q1622272) and a corresponding professor (Q121594) about whether this or the other is "full professor" or the "triple professors" that we see in english language (full professor, associate professor, assistant professor). The English states professor (Q121594) as "full professor" and so it seems right for me. Nevertheless, university teacher (Q1622272) links to w:Professor (highest academic rank) which seems wrong. I have removed that so university teacher (Q1622272) now is a general university teacher. Hope that sorts it out. There is now a dangle English Wikipedia article. Perhaps to be merged. — Finn Årup Nielsen (fnielsen) (talk) 10:17, 2 June 2016 (UTC) (copy from other discussion page)
Infovarius, links mentioned at Special:Diff/613696772 were moved to Q25339110. They stayed there until Andreasmperu decided to revert without giving any explanation, that is after I asked one about particular links. In short, the problem is this at general level this item combines two distinct concepts: 1) a general university teacher and 2) subclass of the latter, a full professor. I tried to move these particular links in order to sort out this mess at least partially. 90.191.81.65 15:04, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
- I am not entire sure what the problem is, but we should have an item for full professor (Q25339110), another more general , sensu lato, is perhaps also necessary (Q121594). In Danish a "Professor" is always a Q25339110 (except the special Professor with Special Responsibilities (Q25935249)). — Finn Årup Nielsen (fnielsen) (talk) 23:58, 15 February 2018 (UTC)
- 'In Danish a "Professor" is always a Q25339110' After I read the Danish Wikipedia article I now see that there are some other cases of professors not being full professors. — Finn Årup Nielsen (fnielsen) (talk) 00:04, 16 February 2018 (UTC)
- Well, and even though we have separate item for full professor, then Wikipedia articles dedicated to it, either entirely, almost entirely or that define topic as full professor (and then mention other kinds of professors as neighbouringing concepts), are still attatched to this item here and mixed with Wikipedia articles that per definition are not about full professor (and that may or may not mention full professor as specific kind of professor). I believe links should be sorted into these two categories in order to clear things up, and that's what I tried to start with. 90.191.81.65 07:09, 16 February 2018 (UTC)

title versus rank[edit]
In some languages 'professor' is a title (prof.), given to academics working in a certain rank. In other countries it is a rank (full professor etc). It looks like this item is used for both concepts. We should split those two meanings.--Hannolans (talk) 06:35, 5 June 2019 (UTC)
- academic title hase been removed here, so I will start a new item for the cademic title 'prof.' as it is in use in for example the Netherlands --Hannolans (talk) 19:56, 10 June 2019 (UTC)
