Talk:List of multiple births

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Have any native English speakers actually edited this article yet? There are words missing and everything. It's a bit unencyclopedic in its wording and you really need a source for each occurrence otherwise anyone could write anything. Mglovesfun 00:00, 29 June 2007 (UTC)

I went through the article and sourced each occurrence independently (actually, now that I consider it, I probably went a bit overboard). I also removed accounts which were erroneous, non-notable, or unverifiable. -Severa (!!!) 16:44, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

It seems neater to have the births in chronological order under each type: I'm going to go ahead and start doing that, I hope no one minds! AniBunny 19:12, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

I'm sorry to undo some of your work, but I just noticed that an anonymous editor made a number of edits in September, and that these negatively impacted the readability of the article by transforming complete sentences into lists of names and also by removing a number of relevant wikilinks. I felt that the only solution was to mass revert to an earlier version rather than to try to sort it out all over again (I cleaned and sourced this article up from top to bottom a few months ago). Feel free to continue chronologizing the entries! Thanks! -Severa (!!!) 19:35, 14 October 2007 (UTC)
Looking over the diffs, it is apparent that the entries were originally in chronological order, but that this order was thrown off by the anon's edits. There doesn't seem to be a need for you to remedy the entry ordering any longer. Thanks for helping to call attention to this issue. -Severa (!!!) 19:49, 14 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] A few sets of triplets

I've just done a cleanup on the list of twins and found two sets of triplets mentioned there but not mentioned here. I didn't want to add them here without sourcing them, but the two articles are Garrett, Spencer and Mitchell Gray and Alexandria, McKenzie and Megan Calabrese. It's up to you what you do with this information :) anemone│projectors 01:51, 31 December 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sources?

I couldn't find any reference for the alleged Danes triples+quintuplets. This would seem remarkable, but there's no citation and I couldn't find anything online, so I doubt the veracity. I put in fact tags; hopefully someone can provide a reference, or I'll come back later and remove them. Zander (talk) 02:23, 6 March 2008 (UTC)


[edit] 40 Grand

I removed the statement htat a lady in toronto had 40,000 babies of the period of 18 years. I beleive it to be false, plain and simple lies —Preceding unsigned comment added by 124.168.21.35 (talk) 12:54, 1 June 2008 (UTC)
