Talk:Major depressive disorder

message: ... section is getting stubby ... lots of short paragraphs and information that needs to be merged or possibly removed.  I see student editing here. (Also found info chunked in to the lead that was nowhere in the body, so fixed that.) SandyGeorgia (Talk)  18:50, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

thread_title:  Management 

message: This section looks also like it was chunked in as an afterthought.  It duplicates some management information, which can be merged to Management or deleted, and the rest of it can go within the other sections as appropriate (prognosis or epidemiology?).

replies: text: this and the chldren section that had been tacked on at the end have been incorporated and vague or reduplicated bits removed (easier than I thought it would be actually) Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 03:19, 15 September 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Elderly 

message: This section is not "terminology" and some of it looks undue; relevant content can be merged elsehwere.  SandyGeorgia (Talk)  19:11, 17 August 2020 (UTC)
thread_title:  Terminology 

message: Out of whack, and looks like people are just chunking in random factoids here, rather than following WP:WIAFA. "There has been a continuing discussion of whether neurological disorders and mood disorders may be linked to creativity," has WHAT to do with stigma?  The section is not very well written.

replies: text: Sigh....I'll compare current with featured version in the first instance for structure etc. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 23:25, 17 August 2020 (UTC)

text: That section dates right back to the FAC. I can see it there almost unchanged in December 2008. So I think I might be the guilty party on that one. :P  - I do think we need to do something about the length of the article and updating etc. Am looking now.Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 01:20, 18 August 2020 (UTC)

text: I think the article needs some cleanup. I've mostly been looking at unclear/inelegant prose today, but I intend look into Sandy's content concerns soon. Haven't gotten through the whole article yet, but the "Pathophysiology" section, for one, seems overly detailed. Cheers, Ovinus (talk) 00:39, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Sigh...on the "to do" list - will have a look later. Daytime here Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 01:02, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: Thanks both. Take whatever time you need, of course. And let me know if there's anything I can do to be useful. Ajpolino (talk) 13:46, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: What I'm doing is comparing the current version to this which was soon after it was promoted and near time it was mainpaged. Just to compare the prose and scope mainly. However, the data needs to be updated to latest studies. I've begun adjusting the prose a bit. Work in progress....Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 14:16, 25 September 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Stigma 

message: I am one person and cannot maintain this old FA alone, and will no longer endure the demoralization of trying to do so.  This is one of the oldest listed at WP:FARGIVEN, and my recommendation is that someone submit it urgently to WP:FAR. SandyGeorgia (Talk)  14:36, 18 August 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Urgent FAR needed 

message: It should be linked to https://doi.org/10.1080/09638239917427 Fairthomas (talk) 14:19, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Citation 283 is mis-linked 

message: There is not a single modern citation in this text, which should be updated to modern sources if re-incoporated.  Most of this dated text is based on sources at least 20 years old; WP:MEDDATE. Debatesdebates?  It's also unclear why it belongs in the Terminology section. SandyGeorgia (Talk)  14:37, 12 October 2022 (UTC)
thread_title:  Dated text removed for improvement 

message: This article must be flagged as having a geopolitical bias. It needs to be globalized beyond the United States and other English speaking countries or Europe. BennuPedia (talk) 20:34, 2 April 2023 (UTC)
