Article Tone/Bias

While I don't see any need for negative content in the article, the tone of the article suggests an inherant bias, and reads more like an advertisement than an encyclopedia article. I suggest the article be rewritten, with the same information, but with a less "buy this product" tone. Discuss. Jo7hs2 (talk) 17:25, 29 February 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I dont know what all changes were made, but I think its ridiculous that the article now states that it is a misconception that Ragdolls are named so because they go limp more often than other cats. As a Ragdoll owner and having grown up in a house full of them, I know from personal experience that this "anecdotal" evidence is simply true. Anyone who has ever picked up a Ragdoll knows this to be true. Period. Thesetrixaintforkids (talk) 02:50, 5 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I'm getting sick and tired of seeing this article changed back! The FACT that Ragdolls go limp when you pick them up is OBVIOUS to ANYONE who's ever even HELD one much less LIVED WITH A HOUSEHOLD FULL OF THEM LIKE I HAVE FOR YEARS. STOP changing it to say "MYTH" when it is in fact, FACT. Some stupid overinflated self important "article" from some random cat breeder online that contradicts EVERY OTHER cat breeder and Ragdoll information page online, is NOT a reputable source!

generally a helpful article

I just was given with a Ragdoll cat and find this article helpful and informative. It's tone is more like enthusiasm than marketing, so it may not need any major changes.

New infobox image

I replaced the old image with one showing the full cat. Hope there is no objections. The old image is now in the gallery section.--220.255.x.x (talk) 10:04, 23 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]
