I didn't add doctor(s) for exactly this reason. I don't know if doctor or doctors is the best choice here. As a none native speaker I would use doctor, but as doctors are used more often I was pretty unsure. Does Anyone have a good explanation about why to favour doctors about doctor? Using the waste_basket (168) term wasn't clear to me, as we have waste_disposal (128), waste disposal(38), waste_bin(26), trash_can(19), trash(5), trash_disposal(1) and trash_bin(1). Looking at leo.org a waste basket seems to be the kind of thing below your desktop and not what you find somewhere on the streets. My feeling is that waste_disposal would be the best term here - looking at the terms used and what leo.org tells me about it :-) ...
