From Standards Records

A summary of all of the relations that you may use when editing a Standards record

This table summarises only those relationships available from within Standards records. Other documentation in this section covers databases, data policies, collections and organisations. The Display Location column below tells you where each relationship can be found in our record display.

You may also wish to review the types of standards available in FAIRsharing.

deprecates	Any standard to any other standard	The linked resource has been retired as it is no longer active or actively maintained	RELATED STANDARDS

collects	any collection to any database, standard, collection or policy	This relationship is not accessible from a standard record; however, any collections that include your record will be automatically displayed.	IN COLLECTIONS

You may layer these relationships to more precisely describe what is available to your users. As the maintainer of a record, you can choose the level of detail; as with most FAIRsharing metadata, we are here to help you provide the level of detail that is most useful to your stakeholders. You can use the "related to" relationship, or can choose to itemise all or some of the different types of relationships you have with other resources; it's up to you.

Adding your record to a data policy that recommends it or a collection that collects it requires updates to that policy or collection; such edits cannot be performed in your own record. If you would like your record added to a policy or collection, please get in touch with our curation team.

Here's an example of adding an extends relationship to a standard:

Choose "Edit Record", navigate to the "Relations to other records" tab, and choose your relationship.
