2. *
A web-based, curated, and searchable portal that monitors the development and evolution of data and metadata standards, across all disciplines, inter-related to databases/repositories and data policies
FAIRsharing has grown organically from BioSharing.org, which covered standards, databases and policies in the life, environmental and biomedical sciences
All data is manually curated and reviewed by FAIRsharing curators and the maintainers of the resources themselves *

6. How FAIRsharing helps the community
My funder’s data policy recommends the use of established standards, but which are widely endorsed and applicable to my crop data?
Which are the mature standards and standards-compliant databases that we should recommend to our authors?
We need a standard for sharing social science data, what’s out there and who should we talk to?
I have some old rice genomic data in format X, which is now deprecated; what format has replaced X?

7. This is the homepage, which you’ll find if you go to FAIRsharing.org.
I’m not going to go through it, other than to say that it allows various ways in which you can enter the data (top part), and gives access to a number of search tools (dark blue banner across the middle).
I want to draw your attention though to the section at the bottom here (highlighted), which gives you an idea as to the scale and type of resources currently curated on FAIRsharing.

10. “The interactive browser will allow us to discover which databases and editorial standards are not currently included in our author guidelines, enabling us to regularly monitor and refine our policies as appropriate, in support of our mission to help our authors enhance the reproducibility of their work.” – Holly, F1000
