+  Sessions can have various items of metadata attached to them, and saved in the
+  session file. These metadata are filled by the user via
+  <kbd class ="menu">Session &gt; Metadata &gt; Edit Metadata&hellip;</kbd>.
+</p>
+<p>
+       These metadata will be exported as tags in the audio and video files that
+       support it, as long as the right option is chosen at the
+       <a href="@@export-dialog">export</a> stage. All the video format can retain a
+       subset of the metadata if the <kbd class="option">Include Session Metadata</kbd>
+       is checked in the <a href="@@workflow-amp-operations#export">export video</a>
+       window, while only the Ogg-Vorbis (tagged) and FLAC (tagged)
+       audio format will be exported with the metadata (as Vorbis comment).
+</p>
+<p>
+       Ardour can also reuse the metadata from another session file in the current
+       session, with <kbd class ="menu">Session &gt; Metadata &gt; Import Metadata&hellip;</kbd>.
+       This menu brings up a file selector, asking for the source ardour session file
+       to extract the data from. This can be handy when reusing a lot of information
+       (Author, Artist Name, etc&hellip;) or working on multiple tracks of the same
+       media.
