An automated process has detected that when you recently edited Reticular formation, you added links pointing to the disambiguation pages Coronal and Medulla (check to confirm | fix with Dab solver). Such links are usually incorrect, since a disambiguation page is merely a list of unrelated topics with similar titles. (Read the FAQ • Join us at the DPL WikiProject.)

Thought disorder

Hello Tikmok - I've been going through the page and see that you have done quite a lot of work. There does seem to be many problems with defining and presentation on page. I've only just been looking at the Word Usage section and been made aware of just how much confusion there is. My initial thought was to change the page name to Formal thought disorder but ngrams favours thought disorder. Something is very amiss when the definitions used by APA are different from those used in DSM-5 and elsewhere. The later articles that I've been using from 2018 Lancet and a 2019 review are more relevant to Formal thought disorder perhaps an overview later after further edits. Best --Iztwoz (talk) 15:42, 23 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Iztwoz. Thkx for the heads up. It seems pretty clear from the psychiatric texts that this word isn't sharply or commonly defined; therefore, the article should present as such and makes it clear which one the section/paragraph is talking about. I personally prefer neither terms, but note that even if the article is changed to "formal thought disorder", this confusing situation still has to be presented somewhere else. Since the academics don't agree, I don't think all the wikipedians will agree either. Whichever way seems fine to me, as long as we present the confusion in an article, or in multiple related articles. Maybe a possible threshold for splitting into multiple articles is when the materials at hand shouldn't be all in one place. --Tikmok (talk) 05:31, 24 February 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Hello from WikiProject Medicine

Hi Tikmok, following up on Doc James' message from five years ago, I noticed your recent edits to some articles on joints and drugs (the bending kind, and the medical kind I mean) and wanted to drop by to invite you to contribute to WikiProject Medicine, the group of medicine-interested editors here. Please feel free to chime in at WT:MED, which serves as a noticeboard for medicine-related issues on the site. You're also more than welcome to post there to ask questions or find collaborators for Wikipedia projects.

If you've got a bit of time, we're currently trying to support WikiProject Unreferenced articles with their November backlog drive by cleaning up the 130 unreferenced medicine articles. If you're able to help out with any of those, it would be much appreciated. If there's any way I, or the other WP:MED folks, can help with your tasks here, please don't hesitate to let me/us know. Happy editing, Ajpolino (talk) 21:59, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Ajpolino, thanks for the invite; now I know where to go if I need help contributing to a med article. For now, I'll keep my eyes peeled on those pages that you mentioned. --Tikmok (talk) 22:21, 12 November 2024 (UTC)[reply]
