:The trouble with basic real world terms like this one is that we need an in-universe definition in order to write a lead (which is required for all articles), but most of these kinds of words don't have in-universe definitions. I think this is one of the better leads that I've seen for this kind of article; some of them are really weak.

::I thought that the lead was fine the way that it was but I don't think that it needed a source since it is just so obvious, even if we limit ourselves to depictions of teaching in-universe. Skittles the hog's new lead is a good compromise though as it is not the sort of thing that really needs citation in my view. --[[User:GusF|GusF]] [[User talk:GusF|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 14:34, October 18, 2014 (UTC)

Cleanup Tag

So, is the page good enough to have the tag removed, or is there something else I should fix?--Rebazim 20:14, June 4, 2014 (UTC)

Categories

Another topic to discuss... I notice on Journalist, there is the category "Journalists." Therefore, would "Teachers" be acceptable here? But this is a job description, so wouldn't it not be?--Rebazim 20:18, June 4, 2014 (UTC)

Definition

Isn't what a teacher does a bit obvious? Leaving aside the fact that I think that it is taking the "no real world" policy so far as to make it ridiculous, we saw teachers at work in An Unearthly Child, School Reunion, Human Nature, The Family of Blood, most episodes of Series 8, etc. and that's just on television. --GusF 13:53, October 18, 2014 (UTC)

What are you proposing? Get rid of the lead? Expand on it?
