Role

What does a dental nurse do? This article is very informative as to the qualifications/requirements, but doens't actually specify their role or tasks. Pear285 (talk | contribs) 21:12, 12 October 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Requested move 11 September 2022

The request to rename this article to Registered dental nurse has been carried out.

Registered Dental Nurse → Registered dental nurse – See the Registered nurse article and recent RM discussions at Talk:Aircraft maintenance engineer/Archives/2022#Requested move 26 August 2022 and Talk:Registered nurse certified in neonatal intensive care. The case where someone is trying to use capitalization to indicate some kind of "officialness" or special meaning or certified job title is a common controversy around here, and it is not hard to find examples of article titles that use such capitalizations. But I think there is basically no support for that in the Wikipedia policies and guidelines, at least unless it can be shown that a term is consistently capitalized in independent reliable sources. Declarations by authorities, such as governments or certifying institutions, are usually not persuasive. If we don't use caps for the Registered nurse article, I don't see why we should do so for the dental variant. —⁠ ⁠BarrelProof (talk) 00:59, 11 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Support per MOS:SIGNIFCAPS, MOS:JOBTITLES and WP:CONSISTENT. I see no good reason why this should be capped. Cinderella157 (talk) 03:30, 11 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Support per MOS:JOBTITLES and MOS:SIGCAPS. This is a great example of capitalization for signification. — SMcCandlish ☏ ¢ 😼 07:02, 12 September 2022 (UTC)[reply]
