BRCA1 substitution
Presumably damage to either one of BRCA1 or BRCA2 leads to problems so they can not substitute for each other ? Does that mean that both BRCA1 and BRCA2 must work together for effective DNA repair ? Rod57 (talk) 15:01, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

To what extent do they repair single strand DNA breaks ? Rod57 (talk) 15:01, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

Bicycle trail
The bicycle trail is interesting, but is the information too tangential and the passage too long for this article? An anecdotal image alone, versus an entire paragraph, may be more appropriate. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Leedmcdaniel (talk • contribs) 18:13, 3 October 2012 (UTC)

Clinical significance section
The expression "cancer pathogen" appears in this section, and I am having a hard time figuring out what is meant by the term. It's an uncommon term on the Internet, and apparently refers to a microbe which is believed to cause "cancer", in plants or animals. In the section, the term is introduced as if its meaning is already known, yet there is no such WP article or earlier mention of such an entity in the article. I feel that either this is a WP: FRINGE or bad writing, and should be fixed, but I am not deeply knowledgeable on this topic. Can anyone sort it out, please? Thanks for your efforts.--Quisqualis (talk) 19:54, 18 February 2018 (UTC)

History section
After I removed some tangential filler about a walking path, the graphic presentation in this section appears compromised. All the text appears below the images, which are paired with a large chunk of white space. The fundamental problem here is the large number of infoboxes. I think moving the History section further down the page is the best solution. Can anyone figure out a better way to fix this?--Quisqualis (talk) 20:14, 18 February 2018 (UTC)
