Well on this one - if you are sure they are siblings (which I have had) - then you know there is a Father. In most cases you even know what his last name is likely to be, so I don't see why it is a big deal to create the father.
For instance, if you have Brother and Sister - John Brown and Jane Brown - then it is no big deal to create a father with the last name Brown, and no other information, the mother is unknown - and you enter the kids John and Jane under them. I did have an instance of Brother whose last name was McCaslin, and a Sister (still single) whose last name on the records I had found so far was just listed as Caslin. I entered the father with a last name of Caslin, and did an AKA of McCaslin. hope that helps a bit!
