	Amateur - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		For example, amateur athletes in sports such as basketball or football would not be regarded as having ability on par with professional athletes in those sports.
		(See amateurism.) In this sense, retaining its French inflexion ("am-a-tEUR"), an amateur may be as competent as a paid professional, yet is motivated by a love or passion for the activity, like a connoisseur.
		A historical shift is occurring with the rise of Pro-Ams, a new category of people that are pursuing amateur activities to professional standards.

	Go ranks and ratings - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

		In China a few amateurs are given the 1p grade as probationers, on the basis of success in amateur tournaments.

	amateur. The American Heritage® Dictionary of the English Language: Fourth Edition. 2000.
		amateur, dabbler, dilettante These nouns mean one engaging in a pursuit but lacking professional skill: a musician who is a gifted amateur, not a professional; a dabbler in the stock market; a sculptor but a mere dilettante.
		Atkinson used it, amateur is found in 1786 with a meaning more familiar to us, “a person who engages in an art, for example, as a pastime rather than as a profession,” a sense that had already developed in French.
		Given the limitations of doing something as an amateur, it is not surprising that the word is soon after recorded in the disparaging sense we still use to refer to someone who lacks professional skill or ease in performance.

	A Visit to Amateur Enterprises
		For a quarter of a century, the folks at Amateur have been quietly engaged in the exploration and mapping of a territory which can be described both by what it is not: ("not science, not philosophy, not art, not literature") - and by what it is: (here the word 'weird' comes to mind, and 'preposterous').
		The Amateur website catalogues and grades the numinosity of hundreds of objects, ranging from "a yolk of leather in a tobacco egg" to, in fact, a common doorbell.
		So, these are the 'offices of Amateur' frequently mentioned in the articles published by the organization in their 'sporadic fascicles.' I've often imagined them, and now here I am observing them.

	Napsterization
		We already have a word for people who create for the love of it, rather than being paid to, and it is 'amateurs'.
		Now it may be argued that, given the decline in the teaching Latin and French, the loving root of 'amateur' is no longer perceived, so those who write pour l'amour ou pour le sport may see 'amateur' as a slight.
		I wrote a post on amateurs recently because I was fed up with Nicholas Carr's "hegemony of the amateur" and then immediately read a column by Mike Langberg of San Jose Merc titled: "An Internet Fed Mostly By Amateurs is Frightening".
