Metadata is a statement about a resource. *From [[Sources/books/Metadata|Metadata]] by Jeffrey Pomerantz* In other words, metadata is data that describes some thing that we're interested in. For example, if the resource we're interested in is this page, we might have the following metadata: - Page title: `metadata` - author: `Stuart Maxwell` - URL: `https://stumax.info/Concepts/metadata` - tags: `concept`, `definition` - creation date: `6/20/24` - modified data: `6/23/24` - etc....
