Dealing with link rot
I noticed that you just removed a sentence or two from the lede of breast cancer on the basis of the link in the text's reference no longer working. (I'm assuming that you probably were the same person who removed the text a couple of days ago, too.)

It's not always – or even usually – necessary to remove references (or the content supported by them) just because the URL pointing to them is no longer working. Sources which likely exist as print publications or which have simply been moved about on a large organization's web site remain valid, even if our convenience link is broken.

You may find the information at Citing sources and the dead link template helpful. In the future, try searching for another online copy of the information, making a request on the article talk page, dropping a note at the Reference Desk, or – if you think the source is permanently gone, both on- and off-line – look for a new source, or add a citeneeded tag.
