Since the WikiProject proposal got a lot of positive feedback, I've gone ahead and created the page for the WikiProject here: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Women%27s_health
It's extremely basic right now, but I'll try to flesh it out some more this weekend. If you're interested, please sign-up as a member on the project page and help tag articles using the project template: {{WikiProject Women's health|class=|importance=}}

Has anyone given any thought to Simple English Wikipedia? I started "Fistula" https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fistula which has so far escaped the deletionists, and have FGM, https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/Female_genital_mutilation which is very incomplete, on my list, since SV updated the enwiki article. BTW, I took the fistula illustration from another language wikipedia, as it seemed more appropriate to a younger and possibly more conservative readership.
As a side note, since I don't know of any women who use Visual Editor, VE has done something with its image search function. If you have ever tried to find an image about some subject on Commons, you know it can be almost impossible. But if you enable VE, go to the "insert" function, and tell it to upload an image, it will suggest images to you that you would never be able to find otherwise.

Hi Ryan,
Thank you for bringing this to my notice! Could I get the link to the article?
It's a little hard to find (which is actually the subject of the discussion): https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Candidal_vulvovaginitis
Wikiproject: Women's Health has been my personal dream for a long
time, but I couldn't yet get myself working on it because of commitments elsewhere. :-(
I would be happy to officially propose such a project (and help set it up) if there is interest from people.
