This should be a disambiguation page. Practicing medicine is different from practicing guitar, for example. (In particular, if you practice guitar, you don't have to deal with insurance companies.) I think there's salvageable content for a disambiguation page, and there are plenty of links to this

may appear to support having a disambig page, but that page is little more than a dicdef and a list of things that can be practiced, and totally unreferenced. If someone can find refs to support an article that goes beyond defining 'Practice', then an article may be justified, but there's nothing
133:
Per talk, this is nothing more than a dicdef which is already in wiktionary. We need to decide once and for all whether or not this page belongs in WP. My instinct is no, but there is content in the article, so I've listed it here to try and generate a consensus.
