Is allomothering a mergeable subtopic of alloparenting? Or does someone wish to focus one article on humans and the other on non-human animals? (Or is there something else I'm missing?)
(This is not a formal merge request ... yet. I want to get my facts straight first.) -- SoledadKabocha ( talk) 06:34, 23 April 2014 (UTC)
I definitely agree that allomothering could be merged to alloparenting. Conorm33 ( talk) 15:42, 12 April 2017 (UTC)

QUERY: Why would not "alloparenting" include teachers and child-care providers, who in most cases provide, as a team, more hours of parenting contact between adult and child per day, and in many cases per year. "In loco parentis" is a principle of common law by which educators in a secondary boarding school step into the guardianship shoes of the parents. Would this not push the percentage of alloparented children in the U.S. substantially higher? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.104.154.167 ( talk) 15:06, 1 May 2016 (UTC)
I think this article is very good and contains many good examples. I think that because there is a benefits section there should also be a section that talks of the disadvantages of alloparenting. I also think that even more examples are added and that some pictures should be added as well. Kralikr ( talk) 17:02, 16 April 2017 (UTC)
Hello Wiki community,
This is just a quick post to let anyone interested know that I am planning some update/edits to this page in the coming weeks. I hope to contribute clear, well-researched and interesting edits to this page, and am open to any feedback or suggestions.

Article is verbose and unclear, e.g. a section talks about "this study" without naming it; sections use names or acronyms, dive into sudden detail, and so on. The images all seem decorative - not one is definitively about alloparenting, for instance. Substantial work is needed to rewrite most of the article to explain the topic to someone who doesn't actually know it already and who wants a quick overview of the topic.

2+ years later and this is mostly still true. The language is stilted, and it just doesn't read like a Wikipedia article. Needs work. Sorry I'm not able to do it myself at this point. Sti11w4ter ( talk) 20:13, 9 January 2024 (UTC)
There is a genetic advantage for the species as a whole if individuals without offspring alloparent. The same applies to orphans [1]. A neo-darwinian perspective. Species proliferation trumps individual lives. Tradimus ( talk) 01:35, 2 April 2022 (UTC)
