Looking for YOUR help creating "Fishing Industry in [COUNTRY] articles"!

Hello DMVHistorian, I noticed that you are a member of the fisheries and fishing WikiProject, and I believe that you may be able to help me with this. I noticed that there is a great lack of articles surrounding the fishing industries of various countries, and for the few with articles, only a handful have much useful information at all. So, I decided to embark on creating these articles. The issue is, however, that there are hundreds of countries to go through, and I'm 100% certain I won't be able to do it alone. That's why I need YOUR help and hope that you can join me in creating these articles. I've posted before around wikipedia, but have gotten no response, and so I've decided to reach out to people who I think would be interested in helping. I have a user page, User:SonOfYoutubers/fishing industry articles in country, that can guide you, and you can ask me directly for any information. Please, PLEASE let me know if you are interested by @ ing me here, or are not, that's ok too. Thank you for your time! SonOfYoutubers (talk) 17:43, 27 March 2025 (UTC)

@DMVHistorian That's great! Let me know how you want to help, I can guide you if you'd like! SonOfYoutubers (talk) 02:45, 31 March 2025 (UTC)
