Talk:List of multiple births

message: Does anyone agree with me that the Tucci quintuplets deserve a spot on this list? Maybe they weren't the first born in Australia but they have had substantial media coverage, whereas some others that appear on this list haven't had any sort of media coverage. 74.83.42.9 (talk) 16:22, 5 July 2019 (UTC)

I would add but I would only butcher the formatting and someone would have to go back and correct it.174.16.156.196 (talk) 10:37, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
replies: text: They weren't the first born in the United States and apparently not all of them survived infancy.  Therefore unless there is some other reason they are notable they don't meet the criteria for inclusion. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 11:03, 25 October 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Stanek Sextuplets 

message: The Fisk quadruplets were the first quadruplets that survived to adulthood in the United States. The two boys, Ephraim and Joseph, and two girls, Keziah and Mary, were born in Killingly, Connecticut on August 26, 1783.
This quadruplet birth was identified in the Providence Gazette on August 30, 1783 on the top right corner of page 3 of the newspaper.
Ephraim Fisk was my 4th great grandfather. Not sure how to get this notable birth added. Can anyone help?

Mrs Edward Beaty in the article was Keziah Fisk. There are census records for each of the quadruplets showing them to be living adults.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Quadquestion (talk • contribs) 19:21, 8 August 2020 (UTC)
replies: text: This needs a link to a reliable source, not just of the birth, but also verifying that they reached adulthood, to be included. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 22:11, 7 August 2020 (UTC)

text: We have a source that is sufficient to include them in the list, but there is nothing claiming they were the FIRST to reach adulthood. They could be included as "possibly the first quadruplets in the United States to survive to adulthood", but that could be considered WP:OR.

text: That's OR. Even the 1750 quads are not described as the first. I've added the entry without mentioning whether they were the first "anything". If there is ever a RS which claims they were the first, then the entry can be amended accordingly. DerbyCountyinNZ (Talk Contribs) 00:17, 18 August 2020 (UTC)
