Things to do

[edit]

Talking points, on wiki pages

[edit]
  • Radon causes lung cancer, but which types? What sources are there on this? See [1]
  • My attempt to stop readers stumbling onto prognosis by stage figures for pancreatic cancer was a quick flop - see [[2]]
  • [Pacak-Zhuang_Syndrome] - new cancer syndrome, described 2013. Is it notable yet?
  • Morphogen - out of date it seems, like so many articles.

Short, jargon-only

[edit]

Henry's picks

[edit]
Human papillomavirus - Intro wrong re types
Incredibly US focused (tho’ mentions the big European trial): Prostate cancer screening
Always a fun topic to fight over:

[Mobile_phone#Health_effects], Mobile_phone_radiation_and_health

There is *nothing* on the ‘alcoholic beverage’ page about health, let along cancer…

Alcoholic_beverage#Ethanol_considered_as_a_drug but (JB) Alcohol_and_cancer gets 60K vpa and is a terrible article - Katrina started work on this 06.10.14

Only tangential mention of cancer on either of these pages:

Obesity, Body_fat - but (JB) Obesity-associated_morbidity gets 17K vpa & is a terrible title, really terrible article. Diet and cancer doesn't cover either.

But there is here: Overweight


http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exercise Under ‘health effects’ – has a section on everything *except* cancer (and mentions obliquely just a couple of times).

Barely mentions cancer: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hormone_replacement_therapy

Could do with a check: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_pollution#Cancer

Likewise: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carcinogen#Occupational_carcinogens

However, this is excellent: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Superfoods
