—————— Um...What research backs your claim that Men think of teal as a green and women think of it as a blue? That seems like an unresearched assertion to me, not something based on fact. Can someone cite this? Or else, get rid of it? 68.193.53.233 23:16, 25 December 2006 (UTC)

Also, of what relevance is World of Warcraft to this colour? This is antecdotal at best.

[edit] WHERE IS THE COLOUR?!?!

WRITE AN ARTICLE ABOUT A COLOUR WITHOUT THE COLOUR ITSELF? IS IT JUST ME OR IS THAT JUST RIDICULOUS? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.144.11.50 (talk) 08:55, 9 November 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Duck origins

An IP added something to the extent that some "scientists" doubt the etymology of the color name. I've given this a fact template. — AnnaKucsma (Talk to me!) 16:21, 7 May 2007 (UTC)

I've deleted this, the citation given backed up the duck theory and didn't say anything about anyone doubting that. The use of "teal" as a colour is so recent anyway (20th century) that there probably isn't anything that colour scientists are missing. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 86.141.15.138 (talk) 22:30, 15 January 2008 (UTC)
