This article is about a Ranger in Power Rangers Zeo and Power Rangers Turbo.

"Ever since I joined this team, you've given me nothing but negative attitude. If you cannot support me, then I don't think there's anything else we need to discuss. Period."
―Tanya breaks up with Shawn.[src]

"I think that it's time to pass the power onto someone else. Tanya, I'm giving my crystal to you. From this point on... you are a Power Ranger."
―Billy Cranston gives Tanya the Yellow Zeo Crystal.[src]

"♪ Do not make light, I've had a fright... Why can I not stop crooning? ♪"
―Tanya is forced to sing her words after a spell from Queen Machina.[src]

"Hold on, I gotta put on a song... A long one."
―Tanya as she leaves her job to help the Rangers battle.[src]

"You showed compassion and integrity, Ashley. I choose you with pride to be the new Yellow Ranger."
―Tanya passing on her powers to Ashley Hammond.[src]

Tanya Sloan was a civilian child with a research expedition in Africa when she was met by a young Aisha Campbell on the latter's mission to recover her fragment of the Zeo Crystal. However, when Aisha learns of an unnamed plague on the wildlife in the area, she decides to send Tanya back to the present in her stead with the fragment. Following the events of Mighty Morphin Alien Rangers, Tanya becomes Zeo Ranger II - Yellow of the Zeo Rangers.

During the events of Power Rangers Turbo, Tanya becomes the first Yellow Turbo Ranger of the Turbo Rangers; she eventually gave her powers to Ashley Hammond and retired as a Ranger.

Retroactively, she is also referred to as Zeo Yellow Ranger or Yellow Zeo Ranger, though these are in reference to the show, as opposed to proper labels. She has also been labeled Turbo Yellow Ranger, a variation on her in-show label.
