Hi Guys,

I am yudong from Gesis.

we are working to implement FAIR Signposting on landing pages.  I wonder is there an existing tool to test the correct implementation of the FAIR Signposting on the landing page?

Hi Yudong,

I'm happy to hear GESIS is working on this!
To the best of my knowledge, there currently is no such tool in place. However, at LANL we are working on a FAIR Signposting validator and anticipate it will be available for testing in a couple of weeks. I'll keep you posted. 


cheers

Hi Martin,

Thanks for the quick answer.

I wonder how to get access to the tool when it is available for testing ? 

Best regards,

Yudong

Hi,

FAIR checkers like the popular F-UJI <https://www.f-uji.net/> are also checking signposting headers. But there's no explicit analysis just of signposting in the reports.
