ArcGIS metadata is mysterious. Here's how I am puzzling through it.
Part 1: Setup and Importing
Simple shapefile: PolygonForMetadata in LL83 and UTM16
ArcGIS Metadata created for LL83 and UTM16
Template for basic metadata creation: 133UAtemplate.xml
Basic, FGDC-compliant metadata: PolygonForMetadata.xml
USGS FGDC MP report for PolygonForMetadata.xml
Imported PolygonForMetadata.xml onto PolygonForMetadata_Project.shp via Metadata Importer (ArcToolbox > Conversion > Metadata > Metadata Importer): PolygonForMetadata_Project.shp.xml
USGS FGDC MP report for PolygonForMetadata_Project.shp.xml after Metadata Importer.

Double checking what happens when Auto Updates are or are not checked while importing:
Auto Update disabled in ArcGIS 10.1 Beta:
"Touched" above file with Auto Updates enabled in ArcGIS 10.1 Beta:
- XML File
- MP report: 11 errors: 11 missing (same errors as first imported metadata, different line numbers)
Auto Updates disabled in ArcGIS 10 with Import Metadata via Description tab:
Auto Updates enabled in ArcGIS 10 with Import Metadata via Description tab:
- XML File
- MP report: 23 errors: 2 misplaced, 21 missing (same errors as Auto Updates disabled in ArcGIS 10, different line numbers)

Part 2: Editing
Adding Attribute information (Attribute Definition; Attribute Definition Source; Valid Attribute "range") in Resource Section > Fields. Here's the XML File ArcGIS created and Here's the MP Report (2 errors: 2 missing).
The last two errors are hard to find. So, I created screen captures of all the editing screens. Along with screen captures of each of the editing sections, a "template" XML file was created with all of the information at the bottom of the screen. It helped to find the repetitive sections as well as document the dropdowns.
There were some fairly large changes to the metadata with ArcGIS 10.1 Beta Service Pack 2. So I tried a few new things:
- Updating required fields so that no errors showed in the editor interface
- Starting from scratch, Updating and then importing metadata and then fixing the errors in the editor interface:
The required sections when importing updated metadata are as follows:
- Overview
- Topics & Keywords
- topic cateogry is required Response: checked Imagery & Base Maps check box.
- Citation
- at least one date is required Response: input today's date as date created.
- Resource
- Quality
- either a conformance result or a quantitative result is required
- either a conformance result or a quantitative result is required
- either a conformance result or a quantitative result is required
Part 3: Finding Required Fields
A new, blank template was created. Each section was reviewed to see which ones are required. Required fields are indicated in red.
- Overview
- Item Desriptions
- title is required
- abstract is required
- purpose is required
- Use Limitations has a red input text box backgroud but is not listed as required at the top of the page
- Topics & Keywords
- Overview Citation
- Overview Citation Contacts
- Contacts Manager
- Metadata
- Metadata Details
- Metadata Contacts
- at least one metadata contact is required for the responsible party
- name, organization, or position is required for the responsible party
- role is required for the responsible party (Dropdown)
- Metadata Maintenance
- Metadata Constraints
- Resources
- Resource Details
- Resource Extents
- Resource Point of Contacts
- Resource Maintenance
- Resource Constraints
- No apparent error. When General Constraints is added, however, it throws a Use Limitation error. This is linked to Overview:Item Descriptions:Use Limitations. Once one is filled out, the same text is displayed in both and both errors goes away.
- Spatial Data Representation
- Resource Content
- Resource Quality
- Resource Lineage
- Resource Distribution
- Resource Fields
- Resource References
- Geoprocessing History
Upon filling out the required fields and attempting to validate FGDC metadata, it fails with the following warnings:
Here are the sections.

- Title The name by which the cited resource is known. Data type: Character String. From: ISO 19115:2003.
- Thumbnail A small graphic that illustrates the resource's content, or graphically identifies the resource in another manner.
