Wow, cool, so no paintings depicting Mental illness. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 210.103.36.58 (talk) 05:01, 7 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

This article is a huge list of works. What is needed is a discussion of mental illness in fiction, its history, ontology, criticism, etc. etc. etc. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.43.105.110 (talk) 02:21, 25 November 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I agree. There is no set order of the page and it possibly can cause confusion for someone viewing it. Also, there are additions that could be added and explained. Jjperez1 (talk) 16:53, 29 March 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Mental illness in fiction → Mental disorders in fiction – rename for consistency, Mental illness is a redirect to Mental disorder. Marcocapelle (talk) 17:39, 15 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Support, for reasons of consistency - though I will note that I am not sure I support "mental disorder" over "mental illness" in general, based on ngrams, but as there was a recent RM on the topic that particular question is closed for now. BilledMammal (talk) 03:44, 16 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
