message: Greenland should be shaded to indicate its participation in the Arctic Council as an autonomous protectorate of Denmark. Greenland is Danish territory, and Denmark is a member of the Arctic Council.

message: The lead paragraph says, "Only states with territory in the Arctic can be members of the Council". Makes sense but no source to check. I'm mildly baffled here. Given the nature of the intergovernmental organization, it practically makes no sense for any country not to have sovereignty over the Arctic zone to wish to be a member. Observer states are one thing, but why would say Italy or Bulgaria ever wish to join? Not being an expert on this organization, I cannot help but think the sovereign states to control the lands within the Arctic came together to create this body for their own needs and this was all. I'm in favour of rewording the lead. --Edin Balgarin (talk) 12:33, 3 April 2017 (UTC)

message: On 06:16, 20 November 2017‎ Chapsok deleted 23,071 bytes , reducing the article size from 30,497 bytes to 7,426 bytes. The article went from having 47 references, to none. This is the most clear evidence of vandalism. . Apparently nobody noticed and no reversion took place. This very significant deletion of content has crippled the article. This kind of edit would have warranted some explanation, but none was volunteered in either this Talk Page or in the edit summary. I invite  to explain now. Although to me it seems a very clear case of vandalism, that sadly went unnoticed for months. Otherwise, I recommend that all that lost content is recovered. I may volunteer some time to that, but others's contributions would be very much appreciated.
This deletion followed a prior one of similar size made by IP 70.50.197.231, which was reverted.
The article prior to what I believe was vandalism, looked like this. After being vandalized it looked like this.

replies: text: Vandalism edit reverted: I have gone ahead and made a manual revert, taking all that had been deleted, and merging it into the current version of the article, which also included multiple constructive edits (that happened between the vandalism deletion in late 2017, and now) that I have endeavored to respect.

message: It appears that the Irish government officially intends https://www.oireachtas.ie/en/debates/question/2019-05-21/128/ to apply for observer status, but hasn't done so yet, nor is it listed as an observer by the Arctic Council. https://arctic-council.org/index.php/en/about-us/arctic-council/observers Culloty82 (talk) 15:02, 30 May 2019 (UTC)

Not sure how to cite stuff, but I can check it out later unless somebody wants to help updating the citation here.
