This
task force covers anything related to the care and breeding of
domesticated pigeons. The following types of articles fall within the scope of this task force's mission:
racing pigeons and other aerial competitions (e. g. thieving competitions)
important books related to raising domesticated pigeons
magazines (past and present) associated with pigeon keeping
biographies of important people in the history of the keeping of domesticated pigeons
aspects of genetics specific to domesticated pigeons
documentation of what is known regarding
mutants found only in domesticated pigeons
history of domesticated pigeons and mankind's relationship with the pigeon.
Articles regarding doves, other species of pigeons, and other
columbiformes are outside of the scope of this task force. This is because the scope of domestic pigeons is already substantial without adding the subject of doves and other species of pigeons.
Review importance and quality of existing articles
