Common warehou → Blue warehou –Pretty straight forward, the primary and over-whelmingly common name this fish is known as is Blue warehou, as per links; here, here, here, here, and here. One NZ Govt page here has the title of Common Warehou but within the page itself, the connected data, information, and connected pages exclusively use Blue Warehou, and other official sources such a this study use blue warehou. To make matters worse, at the moment blue warehou isn't only not a redirect, it's not even listed in the article as an alternative name.Number36 (talk) 00:02, 28 August 2012 (UTC)Reply

Support. There are few references to "Common Warehou" when Google'd in .nz. Most references are where Blue Warehou is aka Common warehou. Oddly, Foodsmart.govt.nz list "common,silver and white" as varieties of Warehou to be wary of due to mercury toxicity.
The Australian Dept of Ag, Fish & Forestries when searched for "warehou" comes up completely with either references to "Blue Warehou", or simply, "Warehou".
Given 'Blue' seems to be the common (no pun intended) nomenclature, then it is to me that "Blue" is the way to go. L-Bit (talk) 09:08, 15 September 2012 (UTC)Reply
