this article incorrectly ?? states that the relationship began in 2004, ended in 2005, and lasted six years. math?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 80.187.102.10 (talk) 01:17, 25 April 2011 (UTC)

:Those are links to the same story published on two different sites. If anyone decides to cite them, I suggest not citing them both since that would be redundant.--Teddywithfangs 06:44, 17 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Roy and Silo brakeup -September 28, 2005 

message: I don't know how much of this is realted to LGBT issues versus parenting and non-traditional families.  It seems to me to be more of a parenting issue among the penguins, but this does stem from their biological drive to procreate.  If this could be expanded covering Roy and Silos behavior over the six years they were a couple that would help a great deal.  Comparing and contrasting this to the children's book could be good.
I do think this article would be a good part of parenting in the amimal world along with an article on same sex coupling of animals.  But it can get complicated when humans try to parallel their own behaviors with that of animals.  Even more complex when we try to parallel human thoughts and feelings, as there is not 100% understanding between humans and animals. --EarthPerson 16:35, 21 November 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  LGBT or Parenting 

message: I agree with the last editor that the fact Roy and Silo broke up is significant, but I wonder if anyone thinks a brief mention of the fact that Tango has been in a committed same-sex relationship is noteworthy. (Link) Perhaps moreso if anyone knows of a more recent source article? --BBrucker2 00:34, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Like the mention currently in the article?  Because that one seems fine to me. --Alynna 03:40, 13 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Oops, how did I miss that? It must be hard to pick out specific details from such a long and detailed article. ; ) --BBrucker2 20:12, 14 June 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  Homosexual? 

message: I erased the mention of the Parks and Recreation episode. Coincidentally, this is the only episode of that show I've ever seen, and while I found it very entertaining, the writers apparently were inspired by a different set of gay penguins. Sure, it's related, but not in any direct fashion. --BBrucker2 (talk) 03:33, 25 August 2012 (UTC)
