Desperately in need of references

As of February 2016, there is a lot of unreferenced material in this article.

Needs updating; project shelved?

As of February 2016:

Is the XCRI project still going? The xcri.org domain is lapsed and now in the hands of a domain broker, the last meaningful (but uncited) additions to this wikipedia article were in 2011, and the JISC page given says that the project ended on 31 Mar 2013.

External links

Further information: Wikipedia: External links

The "External links" section, one of the optional appendices, was expanded to 9 entries. Consensus needs to determine inclusion or exclusion when contested.

• A tag indicates concerns about links. However, none is needed for article promotion.

Some links may be included in WP:ELNO, or What Wikipedia is not (policy) such as WP:NOTREPOSITORY or Others, listed below:

• ELpoints #3) states: Links in the "External links" section should be kept to a minimum. A lack of external links or a small number of external links is not a reason to add external links.
• LINKFARM states: There is nothing wrong with adding one or more useful content-relevant links to the external links section of an article; however, excessive lists can dwarf articles and detract from the purpose of Wikipedia. On articles about topics with many fansites, for example, including a link to one major fansite may be appropriate.
• ELMIN: Minimize the number of links.

The External links guideline This page in a nutshell: External links in an article can be helpful to the reader, but they should be kept minimal, meritable, and directly relevant to the article. With rare exceptions, external links should not be used in the body of an article.

Second paragraph, acceptable external links include those that contain further research that is accurate and on-topic, information that could not be added to the article for reasons such as copyright or amount of detail, or other meaningful, relevant content that is not suitable for inclusion in an article for reasons unrelated to its accuracy.

• WP:NOTGUIDE or WP:ELDEAD may apply as well as WP:ELOFFICIAL.
• In some cases ELCITE applies: Do not use {{cite web}} or other citation templates in the External links section. Citation templates are permitted in the Further reading section.
  • Please also note:
• WP:ELBURDEN: Disputed links should be excluded by default unless and until there is a consensus to include them. Please do not add back more links without consensus. Simple solution to facilitate career maintenance tag. Move links here for discussion.
