[edit] Update
The section has been updated/edited to give it a more neutral tone, while remaining factual. I hope this satisfies! —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mastiffowner (talk • contribs) 14:19, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Request Image

The English Mastiff is a popular breed, can someone submit some better pictures of this breed. Thank you SirIsaacBrock 14:36, 12 February 2006 (UTC)
I could submit excellent images of the Mastiff. How do I go about submitting images? Thanks. Kimmorrell 22:43, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Move
I'm going to get it moved to Mastiff since that is by far the most common name, and mastiff is now just a redirect to this page. However, I'm not totally sure how to do this so it's at Wikipedia:Requested Moves#Uncontroversial proposals. That's why I changed the infobox (a bit premature). --Pharaoh Hound (talk) 14:46, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
Yes, please do move this article to the subject "Mastiff" as there is no such thing as a breed named the "English Mastiff" in any country of the world. The breed's name is simply the "Mastiff." Thanks so much for picking up on that. Kimmorrell 22:41, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
Excelling idea! English Mastiff should probably remain - with a notation that the proper breed name is the Mastiff - but is sometimes referred to as the EM. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Mastiffowner (talk • contribs) 14:21, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
The St. Bernard 'Benedict' was the biggest dog ever at 357Ib —Preceding unsigned comment added by 82.12.104.31 (talk) 12:27, 27 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] NPOV - "Important Notation"
I flagged this section of the article as it struck me as incredibly un-encyclopedic. It is entirely unsourced and reads as more of a rant than a relevant entry. I think it should just be deleted but comments would be welcome. (I'm not commenting on the truth or falsity of the "Notation" itself, just the manner in which it's being presented.) croll 01:48, 12 October 2007 (UTC)
