[edit]A user page satirising the tendency of Wikipedia to use Vincent van Gogh's painting 'Sorrowing Old Man' to illustrate articles on psychiatric disorders was immediately (I mean within seconds) blocked by MuZemike.
The main thrust of the satire centred on the accepted finding that in a majority of cases of Major depressive disorder there is no accompanying depair of the intensity the painting suggests and that accordingly it's dangerous and misleading to illustrate an article on clinical depression with it. Person suffering from the condition might see the article and conclude their condition is not sufficiently severe to require treatment.
