Scope of this article

Let's figure out the scope of this article. It is named Protected designations of origin, but it seems used for Geographic indications (of which PDO is just one of the 3 types used in the EU and the UK) in general. This report from 2021 shows there are on 1 January 2021 under the EU scheme 3286 geographic indications, of which there are 1800 PDO's. For a list-type of article that is too much. Moreover, this list contains indications which are not PDO's, either because they stem from a non-EU scheme, or because they are an other type of GI (eg they PGI's)

For this article we have the following options:

  1. make it a list of all 1800 EU/UK PDO's
  2. make it a list of all 3286 EU/UK Geogrpahic indications
  3. describe the characteristics of the UK/EU PDO with some examples, and make sublistarticles per country
  4. describe the characteristics of Geographic indications, which requires a merge with Geographic indication
