This data set is the basis for our paper, Inclusivity of Indigenous Knowledge Systems in Fisheries Management, submitted to Fish and Fisheries on November 24, 2024. The paper is in review and a new version of the data set may be required for the published version (i.e., the data should be considered interim until a final version is published in a journal). Data are presented in a spreadsheet with two tables. The first table reproduces information from Table 2 in the manuscript, describing each indicator and its scoring criteria. The second table contains information on each of the 88 advice documents analyzed, including their full citation hyperlinked to the original document. While each column is self-explanatory, we highlight the following: Column I provides scores for each indicator that applies to the document, and Column J normalizes the scores. Column K provides the justification for each score. Column L provides, in a few cases, additional information which does not necessarily contribute to the score's justification but which provides additional context.
