The life cycle status for a resource can be recorded in this field.

Please choose the appropriate status from the following list:

  • Ready, when a resource is considered suitable for use. Resources can be marked as ready if they still exist but are no longer actively maintained or updated; in such cases, it is appropriate to add an explanatory sentence regarding its maintenance to the .

  • In development, when a resource is being developed and may be used but may also be in a state of flux;

  • Deprecated, when a resource is no longer considered suitable for use, but it remains relevant to describe it for historical purposes; if this option is selected, a Deprecation Reason text box will appear for you to add a free-text reason that the resource was deprecated; or

  • Uncertain, when our in-house curators cannot establish contact with the owners of a resource and believe a resource may have changed status (e.g. the website is no longer functional). This status isn’t usually relevant when creating a new FAIRsharing record.
