The pulmonologist article is newly created with good content that would be better suited in the pulmonology article. To be consistent with all other medical specialties, the article about the physician working in the specialty ("-ist") should redirect to the specialty ("-ology") article. There is already a training section in the pulmonology article, which is where information in the pulmonologist article would belong. The pulmonology article has been in bad shape for a while, and merging these articles could be the start of a decent comprehensive article. -- Scott Alter 04:15, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
I have removed this text from the article: "This salary is not easily earned though. Pulmonologists, as well as all other types of physicians, are among the most training required of all jobs, however, they are probably some of the most rewarding of all jobs. Becoming a pulmonologist or other physician requires a huge commitment of time and money."
Although I agree with this (being a pulmonologist myself), this information is biased and does not belong in the article. Axl ¤ [Talk] 09:31, 9 January 2009 (UTC)
I think we should change the title of the article to 'Pneumonology', and redirect 'Pneumology' and 'Pulmonology' (both of which are incorrect titles). Refer to this journal article: http://www.chestjournal.org/content/121/5/1385.full Basically, Pulmonology is incorrect because it mixes two languages: 'Pulmo' (Latin for 'lung') and 'logos' (Greek for 'speech' or logic'). 'Pneumo' refers to air, whereas 'Pneumon' refers to lung. See the article for an in-depth discussion. Garaiavu ( talk) 05:45, 17 March 2009 (UTC)
I believe that this article is in need of cleanup. It has not been a very comprehensive or good quality article ever since its creation. More sources need to be referenced. A proper reflist needs to be added (I have very little experience with this), and last but certainly not least, the article needs to be set up so that it does not look like a list of concepts. Please feel free to help improve this article. One may wish to look at higher quality medical specialty articles such as Endocrinology for how to format the article. Please also see Wikipedia:Manual of Style (medicine-related articles). Thanks. Tyrol5 [Talk] 00:31, 1 December 2009 (UTC)
I have a great interest in the management of cough. I would very happy to share my 35 years of experience in the management of cough with anybody who has the same interest. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 175.137.64.26 ( talk) 22:21, 2 April 2013 (UTC)
