[edit] Merging
I think it should be expanded like Whaling in Iceland, se also Category:Whaling by country. The article as it is now is quite bad, but I'll think the subject can be expanded to a descent article. - Kristod (talk) 18:10, 23 October 2006 (UTC)
- The article has a potential on it's own. I'll remove the merge tag, as there has been no input to the discussion arguing for the merger. Delta Tango • Talk 15:33, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

- Rewrote some small details - there are no legal barriers to Norway exporting whalemeat or blubber to Japan.SammytheSeal 19:16, 14 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Updates
I plan to expand this article to provide much more information on the history of Norwegian whaling to include:
Ancient history
Spitsbergen & foreign whalers in Norwegian waters
Svend Foyn and the introduction of modern whaling technology
Finnmark & the first whaling restrictions
Expansion to Iceland
S. Africa
Antarctica
Involvement in the ICRW & IWC
and more...
