Clarity in this Article

When I was reading this article, I found that it was worded quite poorly and unprofessionally. While its information seems to be correct (if not somewhat outdated and contradictory), I don't think it meets Wikipedia's quality standards. For example, the headers of some sections are written in all caps when I that's not the standards for Wikipedia. Hope this helps improve the article.

Citations

Needs citations in the area below the statistics section. Cioriolio (talk) 06:48, 26 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]

"Women's abortion experience" section

I was thinking of removing the section called "women's abortion experience." It doesn't seem to add to the article in any meaningful way and the only way it could was if it was entirely re-done with more of a broad focus featuring statistics and such. Thedualcitizen (talk) 18:28, 15 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn’t say that it “doesn’t seem to add to the article in any meaningful way”. It’s an interesting story that corroborates statements made elsewhere in the article while adding something to the article that the other sections don’t. And there’s a different section for statistics (you know, the one called Statistics). VictimOfEntropy (talk) 02:02, 16 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
