I don't think we should introduce a Category:Ethics, thats a minefield as far as NPOV is concerned. --Brian McNeil / talk 20:46, 5 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

How about ethical controversies? I found something about Terri Schivago and thought they might deserve a category. It could be difficult in some cases but maybe with the right terminology? Or maybe biomedical ethics as a category name?--Steven Fruitsmaak (Reply) 21:32, 5 January 2007 (UTC)Reply
Category:Bioethics strikes me as the right label to create, that seems to be the standard journalistic usage. JBradHicks 04:42, 8 January 2007 (UTC)Reply

Headline is incorrect!

[edit]

The page should be moved to change "surgery" to "treatment." The surgeries removed her uterus, breast buds, and appendix, but do nothing to affect her growth. The growth is stunted by the estrogen treatments. The intro paragraph also needs to be corrected. I'd do all this, but I don't have a Wikinews account so I can't do the move.
