Proposed merge[edit]

I think these two should be merged. I like the "Individual fishing quota" as a title more, since it is more descriptive, and the term which I was familiar with prior to reading these articles. II | (t - c) 00:58, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I agree with this. --Geronimo20 (talk) 02:00, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
You like "Individual fishing quota" more as well? It is a commonly used term in New Zealand? II | (t - c) 02:02, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
In New Zealand the terms that are used are "Individual transferable quota", and TAC or TACC (total allowable commercial catch). But that doesn't mean much to most people. Do you think just "Fishing quota" would be a better title for the article, which can then discus the variants? --Geronimo20 (talk) 02:53, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Hmm. If corporations have quotas, and I imagine they do in some cases, then it is not really individual. In fact, it appears that in some cases they even apply to countries.[1] I think "Fishing quota" would be a better title, and we could have a broad discussion of the policy.

Okay. Have a crack at it if you want. Otherwise I'll have a crack at it later. --Geronimo20 (talk) 03:12, 13 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
