Talk:protologist

Could the medical sense be a typo/scanno for proctologist? Equinox ◑ 12:58, 20 September 2016 (UTC)


 * I considered that as a possibility - but there are quite a few usages, and they are definitely not scannos. I even found one quote that said someone was a protologist who was also trained as a proctologist, which would seem to indicate that they are two different things. What the distinction is, I am unsure about. From what I was reading, I suspect that proctologist is a broader specialty, but I could be wrong there. Kiwima (talk) 18:45, 20 September 2016 (UTC)
 * Yeah I'm not sure this correct either.
 * I interpreted as "protologist (first describer)" 136.228.209.38 06:17, 26 October 2023 (UTC)
