External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just modified 2 external links on Open Archives Initiative. Please take a moment to review my edit. If you have any questions, or need the bot to ignore the links, or the page altogether, please visit this simple FaQ for additional information. I made the following changes:

• Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20100314214736/http://oai.sdu.edu.tr/ to http://oai.sdu.edu.tr/
• Added archive https://web.archive.org/web/20090628103036/http://www.openarchives.eu/ to http://www.openarchives.eu/

When you have finished reviewing my changes, you may follow the instructions on the template below to fix any issues with the URLs.

Past tense?

The tone of the article implies the organization is long-dead — are there sources to support this?

• At least one of the discussion lists listed on their official web site are still active as of June 2022.
• The ResourceSync Framework Specification, (ANSI/NISO Z39.99-2017), is from only several years ago.

The discussion list is still active as of May 2025, the latest thread contains informations about updating links to register to the OAI. According to the official website, "[t]he Open Archives Initiative is no longer working on new projects" – that may be the reason of the past tense. Alfa-ketosav (talk) 20:03, 7 June 2025 (UTC)
