Scope
Thank you for starting this project! One of the first things to do is to define a scope as precisely as possible.
Here are the original categories listed at the project proposal:
- Category:Obstetrics
- Category:Human pregnancy
- Category:Fertility medicine
- Category:Gynaecology
- Category:Breast cancer
- Category:Menstrual cycle
- Category:Birth control
- Category:Abortion
- Category:Menopause
In addition, many of the other subcategories of Category:Women's health are probably within the scope of this project:
Several questions arise over the scope. Does this project cover:
- Legal topics related to women's health?
- People associated with women's health?
- Organizations related to women's health?
- Female anatomy?

- I would say yes, yes, and yes regarding the inclusion of legal topics, people, and organizations. Other opinions? Kaldari (talk) 20:53, 1 June 2015 (UTC)
- I agree about including those. Sarah (SV) 02:14, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
- We should be careful about categories like Menstrual cycle though, as it includes things not really related to women's health, like Maya moon goddess and Whitten effect. Kaldari (talk) 17:41, 2 June 2015 (UTC)
Industry funding and ghostwriting of sources
In case anyone here would like to comment, I've opened a discussion about the above at Misplaced Pages talk:Identifying reliable sources (medicine)#Industry funding and ghostwriting of sources, with a view to adding something to the guideline. Sarah (SV) 21:05, 30 May 2015 (UTC)
Categories
There are so many other cancers besides breast cancer that have a major impact on women. Just think about it-for every different kind of organ that a woman possesses and a man does not, there is a cancer affiliated with that organ AND its tissues. Since we have the chance to organize the categories right from the start is there a better way or category name that would cover all the cancers specific to women?
