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:

In addition, many of the other subcategories of Category:Women's health are probably within the scope of this project:

Categories potentially within the scope of this WikiProject

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?

Once the categories are nailed down and a template is created, a bot request can be made to add talk page banners to articles. gobonobo 01:03, 30 May 2015 (UTC)

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?
