American Academy of Nurse PractitionersAmerican Association of Nurse Practitioners – The American Academy of Nurse Practitioners merged with the American College of Nurse Practitioners on January 1, 2013. On that date, the academy became the American Association of Nurse Practitioners, and the college ceased to exist. http://www.aanp.org/about-aanp/aanp-acnp-merger provides more information, or please contact Michelle Karns at mkarns@aanp.org for more detailed information. We would also like to link the American College of Nurse Practitioners page to the new association page if possible. Thank you in advance for your assistance. relisting and I will contact the nom to clarify Andrewa (talk) 23:09, 11 January 2013 (UTC) Miraclecln (talk) 22:22, 3 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Survey

[edit]
  • Comment:The source given doesn't say the College "ceased to exist" and the Academy "became" the Association; it says both were "consolidated" to form a "combined" organization. So appropriating the new organization title for one of them seems a bit of a cheek. Also, this article is unsupported by any references; why should the College article be merged here, rather than the other way around? Moonraker12 (talk) 11:43, 4 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Agree with your direction on this, and support your position above. Tiggerjay (talk) 09:07, 13 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Agree: Making a new article on the Association, and improving the College and Academy articles, sounds like a good solution. Moonraker12 (talk) 12:20, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
This appears to be a strong consensus, see below. Andrewa (talk) 13:36, 15 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The nom supports this approach as well, I will close this since it is no longer a move request. Tiggerjay (talk) 21:17, 28 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

[edit]

This is an area for less formal discussions concerning the move and related matters. Although we have some comments above already, I thought it good to create an explicit discussion area in view of the new contributors who may wish to comment and may find the formatting a bit daunting. It's not really, but down here, it's even less so. Andrewa (talk) 05:26, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I have emailed Michelle Karns at mkarns@aanp.org as suggested above asking for her comments. Assuming she gives her permission to do so I will report the response here. Andrewa (talk) 05:26, 12 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Michelle has replied by email, saying in part The three article approach sounds like a great solution, and giving her contact details which I will not publish here. In view of this I intend to close this RM, and implement the three article approach. It may not happen for a few days, so anyone else wishing to action this feel free, or other comments welcome.

[edit]

How is the best process to appropriately reflect the previous organization history? We can't just say it was founded in 2013 and ignore the previous foundation dates, can we? | pulmonological talkcontribs 17:20, 3 August 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Request change to midlevel provider

[edit]

It is inaccurate to say that this association advocates for nurse practitioners as midlevel providers. That is not the stance of the association. It would be fair to update the term to clinician or health care provider or provider, but midlevel is not an accurate adjective as it relates to the association's advocacy.
