Talk:Fellow

message: This article is obviously written with a European and mostly British bias, since Americans generally think the idea of appointed "titles" is nothing more than political, narcissistic, tripe.  The idea that "fellows" are the highest technical recognition in corporations is simply superb idiocy coming from the luddite French or British cosmopolitans who's ancestors invented the men's tie, another pitifully sad manifestation of organizational evolution.  This article is now being badged as failing Wikipedia standards. - Signed.  Sir Windsor Spamalot.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.135.162.84 (talk) 16:42, 7 March 2013 (UTC)

message: Since fellowship redirects here, anyone care to take a stab at adding a definition of fellowship that describes subspecialty training after a residency program in medicine in the United States? Ksheka 22:47, May 9, 2005 (UTC)
:I have revised the statement In the USA, a period of medical training following on from residency is sometimes called fellowship to reflect the fact that this is standard, perhaps universal, usage - to my my knowledge, there is no "sometimes" about it. Post-residency physician training in North America is nearly always called a fellowship, and the physician is called a fellow. Thus, Dr. X finishes his medical residency (that is, his residency in internal medicine) and starts a fellowship in cardiology, at which point he is known as a cardiology fellow. In 20+ years of working in academic medicine, I've never heard any other terminology for this type of training. The article now reflects that fact and also adds a brief description of what a fellowship means in this context. The description has a bias toward medical/pediatric subspecialities because that's where my experience lies. If there are important details relevant to surgical subspecialties that have been omitted, please feel free to edit. (Wouldn't want to offend the surgeons!)

thread_title: [Untitled]

message: I changed some of the intro text.  The content suggested that fellow was no longer used in common speech.  However, we here in Oklahoma and Texas still use the term, always in our signature accents of course.  For instance, "What'd that fella want?" "Why's that fellar hasslin' you?"  It may seem silly, but the term is not dead outside of academia.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 139.78.79.33 (talk) 21:30, 24 March 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Fellow as a word for Man

message: The following was placed into the article by 24.136.35.153. It does not belong there.
Here is something I cut and pasted from an email from a friend of mine, recently named a fellow at Cambridge University.  
"All fellows are entitled to certain privileges within their College, such as free meals at High Table and the right to a rent-free room in College."  From Wikipedia. 
My friend's reply to this: 
"Yeah!  I wish!  The free meals were explained to me, and that's fine.  Sitting around with other nerds over there.  But there asking for quite a rent for a one bedroom in Clare Hall (that's the College with which I would be associated).  So, Wikipedia better do a little more research on this, right?"

replies: text: I think so. For example, being able to  link to "Fellow" as a specific term in the professional society sense would be useful from many existing articles.Edurant 22:57, 7 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Split?

message: Does anyone know how the "National Fellow" title, used in India & perhaps elsewhere, fits into the schema? An example would be Kumar Suresh Singh. Does it need to be added to this article? - Sitush (talk) 15:42, 11 November 2011 (UTC)

message: I propose adding "Yahoo Fellows" to the industrial fellows section. It follows the same logic that allows "Google Fellows" to be on the list without citation. Could someone provide me with guidance on what I need to do in order to make the addition? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ricallinson (talk • contribs) 
:, I also removed the Google Fellows mention, which was unlinked and uncited just like Yahoo Fellows' one. Anyway, how about a citation to a reliable source (ditto for Google Fellows, as well, if you wish). El_C 02:25, 27 June 2020 (UTC)
