A barnstar for you!

	The Writer's Barnstar
	Well done for your amazing work on Reservation Dogs episodes and getting them to GA - I enjoyed reviewing them and was very happy I was able to pass them. I have really enjoyed learning about the episodes and their context and it is so important that more stories about indigenous people are told, so please do carry on with your amazing work! DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 03:42, 7 March 2025 (UTC)

@DaniloDaysOfOurLives: Thank you for the barnstar, it truly means so much! I'm not indigenous myself, but as an Oklahoman (where the series is filmed), I've found the series to be crucial for the stories it's told. I hope to make more episode articles for the program soon.

User script

Hey, @TheDoctorWho! I saw that you recently started a source review but didn't mention the duplicate references in the list. Do you have User:Polygnotus/DuplicateReferences? If not, you should get it as it spots duplicates very easily. Thanks, Cowboygilbert - (talk) ♥ 04:34, 11 March 2025 (UTC)

I have not used it, but I will definitely take a look at it. Thank you! TheDoctorWho (talk) 18:34, 12 March 2025 (UTC)

A Myers-Briggs fan?

Hi, TheDoctorWho ... I noticed you identified yourself as an INFJ on your User page, though you had a T out to the right of the J. As someone very much into the MBTI and other similar assessments, as well as a sharer of three of your four letters, I'd be interested to take this forward in conversation, if you're up for it. I identify as INTJ, but my J is just over the middle line and so I often say I'm INTX. I think I understand now why I felt so in tune with your writing as I copy edited it. :) Augnablik (talk) 10:05, 15 March 2025 (UTC)

@Augnablik: Apologies for the delayed response, I have been sidetracked with some on- and off-wiki projects. We took Myers-Briggs tests and discussed the results in-detail in a college psychology course of mine. The T at the end stands for "turbulent" and is a further subtype of INFJ that you can read more about here if you're interested! It's interesting how close our personality types are. TheDoctorWho (talk) 18:38, 19 March 2025 (UTC)

This Turbulent and Assertive breakdown is fascinating, and I'm surprised I hadn't heard of it before because the MBTI was one of the assessment tools I studied extensively when I was doing my doctoral work on cognitive and learning styles, and related tools — then continued with that area of interest in the world of education and training for quite a while.

This breakdown must have come later, when I more or less stopped keeping up with the area. All because of running into you, and through you, this, I'll look into it.

Is there a T and A for each letter? Augnablik (talk) 03:18, 20 March 2025 (UTC)

@Augnablik: I honestly wasn't sure at first, but a quick search of the website does make it appear so. Here's the further T/A breakdown for INTJ. TheDoctorWho (talk) 04:58, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

I followed the link you gave me two days ago somewhat further, and even took this company's version of the assessment tool. This time I ended up over on the P side of the dividing line, though only by one point ... so again I think it's fair to claim an X as my fourth letter, all the more because in my earlier assessment, I was a J by only three points.

And like you, I found that I also ended up as a T!

Incidentally, although this new assessment places me in the Logician category, I feel much at home as an Explorer. I don't feel comfortable with the cold feel of being labeled a Logician! And I'm definitely no mathematician or physicist, just someone who seeks truth, accuracy, and clarity above most everything else. Augnablik (talk) 06:33, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

A perfect example of my T, if it hasn't already occurred to you: this quest for clarity about what happened to my edits of your article that Mox Eden picked up on in the Guild of Copy Editors! 😂 Augnablik (talk) 07:18, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

List of ghost towns in Oklahoma

I was going to leave a smart comment about Oklahoma being just one giant ghost town, and then I saw you were from Oklahoma...

All kidding aside, that's a neat article and I will take a closer look when I get home this afternoon! Bgsu98 (Talk) 15:48, 20 March 2025 (UTC)

@Bgsu98: The state practically is a ghost town if you don't live in OKC or Tulsa. That's the reason why the tornadoes only ever make cows fly and why Missouri has a warning sign up about us. /j 😂 TheDoctorWho (talk) 04:58, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

The article looks good! Since you're practically a figure skating expert at this point, I currently have World Figure Skating Championships up for FL review. Fun fact: the World Championships are next week in Boston and I'll be there! Bgsu98 (Talk) 12:50, 21 March 2025 (UTC)

@Bgsu98: I'll absolutely give it a review, I'll try to get to it sooner rather than later and put myself a placeholder down there. TheDoctorWho (talk) 03:23, 23 March 2025 (UTC)

Undefined sfn references in List of ghost towns in Oklahoma

Hi, in this edit to List of ghost towns in Oklahoma you use {{sfn|Schmidt|1978|pp=104–106}} and {{sfn|Schmidt|1978|pp=51–54}}. Unfortunately there is no work "Schmidt 1978" listed, so nobody can look the references up, and the article is added to Category:Harv and Sfn no-target errors. If you could supply the missing source it would be appreciated. DuncanHill (talk) 00:57, 23 March 2025 (UTC)

Fixed, thanks! TheDoctorWho (talk) 03:26, 23 March 2025 (UTC)
