The link you included is not part of the triangulation instructions. It's part of the "Simple" DNA match instructions, when the two matching test takers are third cousins or closer.
When using triangulation you need to refer to the triangulation instructions which explain that you cannot mark the relationship to the MRCAs ‘confirmed with DNA’: https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Triangulation#Do_you_include_the_MRCA.3F (That means that one triangulation can never be used to confirm both a paternal and a maternal relationship.)
I’ve changed the ‘confirmed with DNA’ entries on this profile to ‘confident’ for you. Please let me know if you have any questions. Thanks!
The confirmed with DNA relationship status indicators should be cleared because the ancestral couple in an autosomal triangulation should not be marked as confirmed with DNA. See this article for more information.
Thank you.
