Descriptive metadata - please, please stop misusing a term thats existed since the 1970's - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0vOg18ncWE https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L0vOg18ncWE Conflating the term "metadata" with "descriptive metadata" and "metadata retention" makes it harder for data archives to get people to provide "structural metadata" (aka. the real metadata), that effectively describes the schemas and data structures of academic and open government data. Yes, descriptive metadata retention is a huge problem, but say that instead of abbreviating terms in a way that obfuscates the issue use the full term.
