"most massive", not "largest"

R136a1 os the largest star by mass. Mass ia not the same as "large" (= diameter), making the title misleading; the largest stars are VV Cephei A and VY CMa. Daniel "Danny" Fenton is back (talk) 23:51, 28 January 2019 (UTC)

"Most massive" is an obvious meaning of "largest".

This isn't the largest star, it is the most massive. Just because the average person doesn't know the difference, doesn't mean the techical acuracy of the article should suffer.

Well that may be... but i don't think you should be insulting the intellect of everyone when you can't spell accuracy (as well as technical). So it may be that the article shouldn't suffer. Your feedback... well has, but even if you know how to spell accuracy or technical and you just happen not to catch it. It just means your method for feedback is less then efficient. Have a nice day and be kind ;) emoticons

You can! Most web browsers have a 'send link' command.

I don't think anyone here is trying to coerce you into using the social networking websites. The person who made the 'share this' buttons merely made it as easy as email for those who do use those sites.
