message: Sorry about hte gorilla image! I cut'n'pasted the taxobox from the gorilla article and then edited it.  I guess I didn't edit it quite enough ;)--Mishac 19:32, 23 Feb 2004 (UTC)

text: Nope. Goodman et al (1998) split it off again, and Groves (2001a) confirmed the split. Geissmann is even in on the split now (see his systemics page and our use of it in Hylobatidae). - UtherSRG (talk) 14:00, 9 April 2006 (UTC)

message: "...two fingers on each hand are fused together (hence the name "syndactylus")."  Which two fingers would these be?  140.147.160.34 (talk) 14:15, 13 February 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Syndactylus--which two fingers? 

message: so they r only calling t 'defend territory'? which researchers say that where r the references? they make more calls when fruits r superabundant? more of these 'repulsiv calls' t defend territory when thrs fruit all ovr? less calls when thrs slim pickings u can starve t death so dont guard ur food with calls then? 
sounds like cooperativ calls, or som complicated mixture, but fewer when food is scarce u might starve if too many fellows home n on ur precious few fruity locales!... but thrs no references on any this stuff we dont know who said it & how they said it.

thread_title:  talk/calls/vocal communicativ techniques 

message: The contents of the article are divided into two major categories: ecology, and threats and conservation.  Both categories are further divided into sub-categories, and of the two, the section on ecology contains far more information.  It may be useful to reorganize the ecology section into several smaller sections, especially since sub-categories discussing the role of calling could fall under the behavior sub-category.  While the organization may need some work, the content of the article seems appropriately in depth for a Wikipedia article.  The section on the role of calling is particularly interesting and well developed.  There are several references to cooperative behavior concerning infant care and vocalizations.

thread_title: Article Organization

message: This section, in spite of the citations, makes very little sense. A Siamang can defecate up to 300m with a minumum of 47.6m?  I don't think that is what is meant, but I can't parse it exactly... — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:1700:D1E0:60E0:5BF:8043:1C04:9D1A (talk • contribs) 
:I've updated the text and found a replacement reference. Basically, siamang eats some fruit, digestion takes a day or so, siamang travels while digesting, then siamang poops and the seeds come out in the poop. - UtherSRG (talk) 01:10, 26 November 2022 (UTC)
