Comments As usual, check my copyedits to make sure I didn't mess anything up. Otherwise, it looks good, not much to say: Sasata (talk) 15:53, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

• "The black dogfish (Centroscyllium fabricii) is a species of dogfish shark in the family Etmopteridae, common over the outer continental shelf and continental slope at a depth of 180–2,250 m (590–7,380 ft)." Perhaps split this opening sentence, as the way its written, it's not completely clear whether the last half of the sentence applies to the species or the family.

Done.

• I'm thinking "white muscle" should have a link, but couldn't find anything appropriate… according to our article on skeletal muscle, this term seems outdated, and type IIb is more accurate (?)

Changed to "swimming muscle"; "white muscle" is still used often in fish literature, but the distinction is not all that important here since this species doesn't have any red muscle.

• any data on lifespan?

Not to my knowledge

• convert tons to metric

Fishery statistics are always reported in metric tons, even in countries that otherwise use Imperial. I've linked the first instance to clarify.

• probably don't need to define the acronyms TAC and ICES, as they aren't used again

I like including acronyms for terms when they exist; I think it's helpful in case the reader encounters them somewhere else.

Let me know of further issues. -- Yzx (talk) 17:54, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

No further issues. Images are PD or appropriately licensed, fixed one dab; passing as GA now. Sasata (talk) 18:08, 6 October 2010 (UTC)
