I've reverted the scope of the cattle article to cover all domesticated cattle as it did originally.

*'''Keep''' - For 21 years (until last August) the scope of the [[cattle]] article was all domesticated cattle (not just taurine cattle). A single editor changed the scope in August without discussion. There is [[Talk:Cattle#What's_this_page_supposed_to_be_about?|unanimous consensus on the Cattle talk page]] to change that article's scope back to all domesticated cattle. The [[taurine cattle]] article needs to be expanded, not deleted. [[User:Kaldari|Kaldari]] ([[User talk:Kaldari|talk]]) 04:35, 23 February 2022 (UTC)

This article as it is currently is a duplicate/WP:POVFORK of Cattle. The cattle article currently begins Cattle (Bos taurus or Bos primigenius taurus), also known as taurine cattle, Eurasian cattle, or European cattle, are large, domesticated, cloven-hooved, herbivores. Indicating that the scope of the article is taurine cattle excusively, rather than Zebu, which we have a separate article for. If people are unhappy with the scope of the cattle article and think it should cover both taurine cattle and Zebu, and that a separate article should be dedicated to taurine cattle, then this is something that should be put to an RfC on the Cattle talkpage. In its current form, this stub is a pointless fork that is not useful to the reader. Hemiauchenia (talk) 20:39, 22 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  • Keep - For 21 years (until last August) the scope of the cattle article was all domesticated cattle (not just taurine cattle). A single editor changed the scope in August without discussion. There is unanimous consensus on the Cattle talk page to change that article's scope back to all domesticated cattle. The taurine cattle article needs to be expanded, not deleted.
