Description Jean-Fred 2014-04-17 15:14:50 UTC
During the metadata mapping stage, it is only possible to map to metadata fields from the XML.

But the metadata may not hold some information, especially ones that are common to all records.

For example, if I upload a public domain collection, it is not likely I will have {{PD-two|PD-old-100|PD-1923}} in my XML records. But as it is the correct template for all fields, I want to enter it myself.

Other example: I work at Groß institution and upload our collection. All files should have |institution= {{Institution:Groß institution}}, but my metadata does not have it. I want to avoid editing the XML to add this element to every field.
