*'''Comment''' - I'm not an expert at DYK, but I love this entry. It is controversial, but cited. Although there is debate about whatever people debate about, the fact that "gay penguins" is in quotes means it can be taken literally or ironically, so nobody should get too upset. Very interesting and pithy hook. Central Park Zoo should probably be wikilinked, and I think "same sex" should be "same-sex", but I like it no matter what. ▫ '''[[User:JohnnyMrNinja|<font color="#202040">Johnny</font><font color="#204040">Mr</font><font color="#206040">Nin</font><font color="#204040">ja</font>]]''' 23:27, 22 April 2012 (UTC)

  • Comment - I'm not an expert at DYK, but I love this entry. It is controversial, but cited. Although there is debate about whatever people debate about, the fact that "gay penguins" is in quotes means it can be taken literally or ironically, so nobody should get too upset. Very interesting and pithy hook. Central Park Zoo should probably be wikilinked, and I think "same sex" should be "same-sex", but I like it no matter what. ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 23:27, 22 April 2012 (UTC)
