2.5.1  Metadata Definition

The Metadata Definition form allows you to provide basic information on your contribution. It contains a few required fields, such as Title, Description, Keywords, and Expert Level, but the more information you can provide, the better.

Many of the sections in the Metadata Definition form appear only if you have selected the appropriate checkboxes in the Select Contribution Options form. This makes it possible to simplify the Metadata Definition form by removing the options that do not apply to your contribution.

For information on each of the options in the Metadata Definition form, click on the appropriate INFO button.
