Quaternary mention?

I not only didn't see any mention of non-communal "quaternary marriages" mentioned in this article, I couldn't find a single mention anywhere on wikipedia. Could quaternary marriages be mentioned or even have its own article? I learned about it earlier today in the letter section of Popular Science and this was basically the only worthwhile web reference I could find outside of discussion about group marriages: [1]

Citation 19 is a dead link

Suggestion for improvement

This article is sorely lacking in content post-birth of twins. Here is an entire book on the subject. Calliopejen1 (talk) 08:24, 25 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

No mention of identical first cousins (dispersed between continents)? They laugh alike; they walk alike; at times they even talk alike. TheScotch (talk) 15:07, 29 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

HI

Image pertinence

@KnightMove: I have replaced the image of the Olsen twins with that of child-age fraternal, look-alike twin sisters, as the latter fulfills the variety criterion of MOS:PERTINENCE. With that provided, the further addition of the Olsen twins image, apart from the visual-to-text ratio being at its utmost, would simply be superfluous as instanced in the MOS and will not be adding to anything provided in the article whether it be in text or illustration.
