I included a link to "melancholy" in my new bit on Holy Living and Holy Dying, only to learn that "melancholy" redirects to clinical depression. This is mildly disconcerting.

I plan to create new pages shortly on Robert Burton and the Anatomy of Melancholy as soon as I have assembled the information shortly. I believe that I will need to write up a new page on literary melancholy, that probably should go here. How should this be best handled?

I've redirected this to melancholia, which is far more appropriate. If a separate page on literary melancholy is needed, it can be made at literary melancholy, but I would think that melancholia would be the place to handle the subject. --Camembert
I have checked through the only links to melancholy, and found only one other than mine, a piece on a former Archbishop of Canterbury. Since it also seemed more appropriate targetted at melancholia I made that minor change as well. --IHCOYC
