Research draft, second pass
A second pass drafted this model: the structure a model of this thing needs, and what is known about it in the world. The line under this one says how the second half was obtained - researched against sources, or recalled without web access, in which case nothing here was read anywhere and every claim is a lead to verify. Unreviewed either way.

Purpose and description
Let an agent explain the academician title, relay election processes, ranks and national traditions from academy and higher education sources, describe the named memberships, and distinguish academicians from academics generally, corresponding members, fellows of learned societies and members of arts academies.
A member of an academy, especially a full member of a national academy of sciences, a title of high scholarly distinction in many countries, notably in the former Soviet Union and successor states where akademik denotes a full member, distinguished from corresponding members, with ranks such as ordinary and extraordinary academician, and examples the registry aliases name including members of the Academy of Sciences of the USSR, the National Academy of Sciences of Belarus, Academia Sinica and the Ecole francaise de Rome, the last being a research institution whose members are fellows rather than academicians in the same sense.
