    description: The dataset has an identifiable topic that none of the more specific
      values above captures. Use sparingly, and prefer a specific topic where one
      fits.
  Unknown:
    text: Unknown
    description: A topic could not be determined for the dataset. Used as a placeholder
      for records imported from external sources (e.g. OSTI) that lack topic or subject
      information, pending curation. Carries no OSTI subject category code.
