Description
I just met with @sbarbosadataverse @cmbz @kmika11 and @jggautier and floated the idea of adding content to the guides about how Dataverse supports the FAIR Data Principles. They liked the idea.
One of the problems I'm trying to solve is that https://dataverse.org/software-features lists "Support for FAIR Data Principles" as the number one feature but links to a talk that's over four years old.
Instead, like every other feature, it would be nice if the "more information" link went to the guides, which we are always updating. Here's a screenshot of how the features page looks:

Research direction
Start by locating the Dataverse guides and the software-features page entry for “Support for FAIR Data Principles,” then review the current talk link and surrounding feature descriptions. Done means the guides explain how Dataverse supports the FAIR Data Principles and the feature’s “more information” link points to the guides instead of the outdated talk.
