Fairy Tale vs fantasy
Are there any sources that try to draw distinction between fantasy and fairy tale genres? - Altenmann >talk 15:34, 1 April 2024 (UTC)
Article split
The article is very large. I suggest to split a separate page, List of collections of fairy tales. - Altenmann >talk 15:57, 10 April 2024 (UTC)
Improbable paragraph
From the article:
” The Jatakas are probably the oldest collection of such tales in literature, and the greater part of the rest are demonstrably more than a thousand years old. It is certain that much (perhaps one-fifth) of the popular literature of modern Europe is derived from those portions of this large bulk which came west with the Crusades through the medium of Arabs and Jews.”
The claims here are both vague and improbable. One fifth of modern European literature is derived from thousand year old fairy tales? What? InspectorMendel (talk) 11:57, 8 February 2025 (UTC)
- I'm going to go ahead and remove this paragraph. InspectorMendel (talk) 09:22, 10 February 2025 (UTC)

Motherhood reasoning
is there a defined reason why motherhood is almost always depicted as a negative matter? And are these themes exclusive to European fairy tales? Milomeador (talk) 17:12, 22 March 2025 (UTC)
