I think we must either correct the claim of the "The Maine Coon is the largest domesticated cat breed", or correct the Norwegian Forest Cat's article (please compare the quoted average weights of both breeds). Ferkijel (talk) 12:08, 9 July 2020 (UTC))

Lipinski genetic study
Lipinski gets quoted a lot on the origins of the Maine Coon. Is she worth a mention here?

Top image
Do we have any proof that the top image is a Maine Coon other than the picture name? A previous edit said it wasn't one... Jack Slade The Englishman (talk) 21:34, 11 June 2022 (UTC)
Main coon
In 2006 the Guinness world records named a male pure bred Main coon the longest cat verismo leonetti reserve red better known as Leo measured 120 cm in length from the tip of his nose to the tip of his tail and weighed 16kg that record was broken in 2010 by another main coon a male pure bred named Stevie messering 123cm from nose to tail 😉 hope I helped Lillybootsy (talk) 07:12, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
- You didn't.
- You didn't give a link to a reference, which means someone else has to do that work to comply with WP:V.
- Over half the words in this post are misspelled or miscapitalized. They're Maine Coons, not "main coons"; it's the "Guinness World Records", not the "Guinness world records"; cats have measurements, not "messerments". These are not all of your errors. This is a serious project and we need contributors to do their very best work if they're going to be good contributors. If you are dictating your contributions, it is your responsibility to proofread the dictation output; you cannot expect other editors to do this for you, especially if you do not provide a reference. Your contributions are welcome but you must take this much more seriously. Thanks. - Julietdeltalima (talk) 15:07, 14 September 2022 (UTC)
