message: I suspect the "vice" jaw stuff is utter nonsense.  The pitbull manages excellent bitepower with a conventionally arranged jaw.  What proof have we that the jaw of authentic bulldogs projected?
My theory is that this is tripe cooked up by modern English bulldog-fanciers to connect their dogs with the original breed.

thread_title:  Source for the jaw claim? 

message: This page is fraught with POV and needs some serious work. Would be great if a professional breeder or someone familiar with breed characteristics/show criteria could improve page,--RexRex84 21:15, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Need work 

message: I am removing the following section for being unreferenced:
:===Old Roman Bull-Dog===
:Dave Coleman of Virginia has created the Old Roman Bull-Dog, in an attempt to recreate the fighting dog, attested in various Classical sources as coming from Gaul or Britain. He has acquired the genetic makeup from proven working stock to reproduce what he thinks these dogs once were - An oversized, giant framed Bull-Dog that can work, play, guard and are companions.
To return it, please provide a source to verify what is stated ... not just Mr. Coleman's claims about his breed, but also that the breed actually exists.  I also think this section reads as something of an advertizement for Mr. Coleman and his breed (it talks more about Mr. Coleman than the dogs) so some re-writing may be needed.

message: I think that two more breeds from Brazil should be included, the Campeiro Bulldog and the Serrano Bulldog. If this could be done, that would be all of the major breeds of this type.Malcolmlucascollins (talk) 02:39, 26 July 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Possible inclusion of two breeds 

message: , I see you have reverted my edit that reduced the paragraphs for each breed to a simple lis. Currently only two of the breed paragraphs are reliably sourced and the what is drawn from these sources is of little value. It is my opinion that this should be a simple list with RS for each breed that specifically describes the breed as a bulldog, currently there is swathes of unsourced stuff on the page.

replies: text: This is not a WP:ARTICLE, the Talk page states that this is a WP:LIST. In accordance with WP:STANDALONE, my view is that these dogs should be converted into a simple, alphabetized list. Further detail about them can be found on their hyper-linked article pages. If someone is prepared to convert it into an article, then they will need to WP:CITE expert WP:RELIABLE sources which other editors can WP:VERIFY. William Harristalk 09:54, 10 November 2019 (UTC)

replies: text: What is accepted in other WikiProjects is irrelevant - this article falls under WikiProject Dogs. The WikiProject's accepted format for a list appears at: Wikipedia:WikiProject Dogs/Assessment#Quality scale William Harristalk 10:29, 12 November 2019 (UTC)
