Removing the link to Sparta is vandalism, please do not make such a modification without discussing it on the talk page.

WTF is with this article and Sparta?--jonrev 19:26, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

Madness is a term used to describe a large gathering of people with many extreme emotions.

I removed the redirect to Sparta. It is based on a faulty reading of the text. What happens is: Black Persian Ambassador Guy: "With 300 naked guys? Against an army? it's madness!" Topless Spartan Hunk-King: "No! It! Is! Sparta!". (Pushes ambassador into a well.) Clearly the implication is that Madness is not Sparta. Hornplease 07:13, 15 March 2007 (UTC)

So I assume that it is the opposite of Sparta? 68.228.28.226 20:24, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

"This is madness!" - Persian Ambassador "Madness? This is Sparta!" -King Leonidus in the movie 300

Now the people have what they want, I have created a fiction section for this article, leading to Sparta, and a link to the movie 300. --66.97.122.220 08:39, 25 July 2007 (UTC)---

Someone reverted his edit with no justification, so I will restore it. If you have a problem please discuss it on the talk page, or else it is a violation of wikipedia policy to make such blatant vandalism to the fiction section. 68.101.12.238 (talk) 01:16, 12 December 2007 (UTC)

I have removed the Sparta link again. This page disambiguates between various uses and forms of the word madness. An article should be linked here if Madness is in its title, or if it may be reasonably confused with Madness (as with Insanity). Say what you will about Sparta, but there is no way that a region, state, or nationality could be confused with an emotional response. Linking to Madness from Sparta, 300 (film), or wherever, is fine - but not from Madness out.
