But after we noticed an apparent predominance of NT, who think of

they quickly leaving because they can't meet their needs ?
To put it simply, airline pilots are not encyclopedists. The personality traits that make for a good pilot, for instance split-second assessment and decision, are more likely to generate conflicts in WP than to resolve them.
- is it good for wikipedia community that mostly NT
are here ? Would not we benefit of more types ? How to attract them and *keep* them ?
To take a different angle, you want people who are introspective, because they're the ones who will want to think about why they organizing information in a particular way. You've already run into the non-introspectors; they loudly declare that their way is the only way, and would rather fight than figure out a compromise.
In general, we want people who are well-suited for the task of building the information base. It doesn't do us any good to bring in people who are ill-suited; they won't like it, won't last long, and you probably won't like the results of their work.
