It would be nice if someone could make an analysis of the presence &
depth (treatment, protocol, prevention) of articles on breast cancer
vs prostate cancer on Wiki(p/m)edia, as both are becoming about the
same threat in terms of live expectancy after diagnosis. We could work
from there on a to-do list.

The 'getting tested' section looks very North
America and 1st world
centric.

It would be an interesting Wikiversity project to look at illnesses/medical
procedures/etc with participants from different regions of the world trying
to document how they would need to tackle the problems involved, if it
became necessary.
E.g. where is the nearest place that the test/procedure can be done, and
how frequently do they do the test/procedure as that may be a major
consideration in whether you would travel further to receive more
experienced care. Is the test covered by public health or insurance? Are
related costs covered? (e.g. travel) How much will it cost.
