Short description
FAIRification is a continuous process. If you have not yet reached all of your objectives, you can decide to restart the process and further optimise it to reach more of your goals [FAIRopoly].
An approach to review the overall success of can be to have individuals not directly involved in the practical implementation work, but familiar with the overall data, reviewing of the outcomes of the FAIRification work against the initial goals [FAIRPlusFAIRinAction]. This provides independent feedback and prevents the danger for work to continue beyond the point where the benefits exceed the cost.
Furthermore, other types of results, such as lessons learned and developed recipes can be disseminated for the benefit of the community [FAIRPlusFAIRinAction].

FAIRopoly
FAIRification is a continuous process, do not get discouraged by achieving only some of your goals. If that is the case, it may be time to reassess and restart the process optimising it to your project priorities.
...
Developed recipes are shared publicly in the cookbook. If applicable, update FAIRness levels in IMI catalogue. Integrate lessons learnt with other initiatives e.g. Pistoia FAIR toolkit, RDMKit

Why is this step important
...
Furthermore, by disseminating lessons learned, new recipes etc, others can learn from your experience and perhaps reuse your methods.
Expertise requirements for this step
This section could describe the expertise required. Perhaps the Build Your Team step could then be an aggregation of all the “Expertise requirements for this step” steps that someone needs to fulfil his/her FAIRification goals.
How to
This section should help complete the step. It’s crucial that this is practical, doable and scalable.
...
Sub headers if relevant for specific domains?
Practical Examples from the Community
This section should show the step applied in a real project. Links to demonstrator projects.
