Fictional and semi-fictional depictions of ECT

 * – ( View AfD View log  •  )

List of trivia. ECT has been depicted in hundreds if not thousands of books, movies and television shows, but the ECT article is better served by a section examining the treatment of the subject in such media than by a separate page listing all the examples an editor can think of.

 * Merge to Electroconvulsive therapy, since that's where this information belongs (though as a much shorter list) 65.94.253.16 (talk) 05:25, 10 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Keep   This will be limited to such depictions within works that are notable in Wikipedia . I doubt there will be more than a hundred, but however many there might be, we can handle them. If it covered every such depiction every produced, that would be another matter.  DGG ( talk ) 00:21, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge I would limit it to those few works where the ETC depiction is significantly discussed in secondary sources. In which case a paragraph in the main article should be adequate. Otherwise we are dealing with a lot of original research. --Bejnar (talk) 05:36, 12 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Merge then Delete. Merge back to Electroconvulsive therapy, from which it is a content fork. Whoever forked it out should know that "cleaning" an article by forking is against consensus. Abductive  (reasoning) 19:33, 15 April 2010 (UTC)
