Low Importance Medicine Articles

There's a big surprise. Why not just label all men's health articles as low importance? If you went by the Susan G. Komen TV commercials you would think that it had been labeled "Top Secret". Or, the discussions by the TV medical experts, where they always tippy toe around it. Here's remembering Rod Roddy and a shout out to Richard Roundtree, among all the other men (e.g.,the drummer from KISS) who've been there.Godofredo29 (talk) 01:40, 10 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

@Godofredo29: If you believe the classification of the article is a mistake, please reclassify it. Ms. Andrea Carter here (at your service) 11:57, 23 July 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Broken link

On 2021-09-24 the following reference was cited for saying, "The number of annual deaths in the US is about 440 (for 2016 "but fairly stable over the last 30 years")":

<ref name="acs">{{cite web |publisher=[[American Cancer Society]] |date =February 9, 2011 |title=Breast Cancer in Men |url=http://www.cancer.org/acs/groups/cid/documents/webcontent/003091-pdf.pdf |accessdate=2011-04-24}}</ref>

However, this reference no longer gives a number, and I cannot find that page on the Internet Archive.

I found reference giving 510 for 2017. I will cite that for the average deaths in a typical year.

However, <ref name=asc/> is cited 7 different places in this article, and I don't know enough nor have the time to try to fix the other 6. I hope someone else will be able to do that. Thanks, DavidMCEddy (talk) 21:47, 24 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
