+Localization [Archived]
+=======================
 
+**This GitHub project has been archived.** Ongoing development on this project can be found in <https://github.com/aspnet/AspNetCore>.
 
 Localization abstractions and implementations for ASP.NET Core applications.
 
-This project is part of ASP.NET Core. You can find samples, documentation and getting started instructions for ASP.NET Core at the [Home](https://github.com/aspnet/home) repo.
-
-### Localization Samples
-
-Here are a few samples that demonstrate different localization features including: localized views, localized strings in data annotations, creating custom localization resources ... etc.
-
- * [Localization.StarterWeb](https://github.com/aspnet/Entropy/tree/master/samples/Localization.StarterWeb) - comprehensive localization sample demonstrates almost all of the localization features
- * [Localization.EntityFramework](https://github.com/aspnet/Entropy/tree/master/samples/Localization.EntityFramework) - localization sample that uses an EntityFramework based localization provider for resources
- * [Localization.CustomResourceManager](https://github.com/aspnet/Entropy/tree/master/samples/Localization.CustomResourceManager) - localization sample that uses a custom `ResourceManagerStringLocalizer`
-
-### Localization Providers
-
-Community projects adapt _RequestCultureProvider_ for determining the culture information of an `HttpRequest`.
-
- * [My.AspNetCore.Localization.Json](https://github.com/hishamco/My.AspNetCore.Localization.Json) - determines the culture information for a request from a JSON file.
- * [My.AspNetCore.Localization.Session](https://github.com/hishamco/My.AspNetCore.Localization.Session) - determines the culture information for a request via values in the session state.
-
-  ### Localization Resources
-
-Community projects adapt _IStringLocalizer_ for fetching the localiztion resources.
-
- * [My.Extensions.Localization.Json](https://github.com/hishamco/My.Extensions.Localization.Json) - fetches the localization resources from JSON file(s).
- * [OrchardCore.Localization.PortableObject](https://github.com/OrchardCMS/OrchardCore/tree/dev/src/OrchardCore/OrchardCore.Localization.Core/PortableObject) - fetches the localization resources from PO file(s).
