Russian–American Long-term Census of the Arctic

This article is unsourced, unreferenced, not linked anywhere else on Wikipedia, and feels it was pulled off of a website which would imply a violation of copyright. I can't find a single news source that covers this subject. A quick google search for this comes from a website that is operated by the United States Department of Commerce. It is the first result under the banner of the cached link to this article here on Wikipedia. WikiCleanerMan (talk) 18:22, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete. The page is certainly a copyright violation: it is copied from an National Science Foundation publication. I do not know if the topic itself is notable, but in its current state, there is no content we can save due to the copyright issues. We should delete the current page (perhaps speedily, per WP:G12), with no prejudice to recreation if appropriate sources are found. BenKuykendall (talk) 19:09, 4 April 2021 (UTC)

 * Delete The National Science Foundation is a United States government agency and their work is public domain, so if the content is copied from that source then it may not be a copyright violation. If we have copyright-compatible expert source material, we can copy it into Wikipedia through processes such as Journal to wiki publication. However in this case, we have no citations to sources, and there is not much attempt to demonstrate that this concept meets our standard at WP:Notability. I say delete because of that, and not because of an obvious copyright violation.   Blue Rasberry   (talk)  18:15, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
 * Delete. Here is the description of the project on a website. This is not nearly enough to establish notability. My very best wishes (talk) 21:54, 5 April 2021 (UTC)
