Populating Metadata Information

Every article under Joomla can have metadata associated with it. This metadata is used to display Related Articles below the current article. It is important to NOT use generic keywords in the metadata. This will result in unrelated articles being displayed instead of only the relevant ones. To circumvent this problem, only use keywords which are unique to the article you are working on. Refrain from using commonly used words (the, and, who, what, when, etc.).
