 Metadata formats (also called metadata sets) define which fields appear when you describe a resource. In HORTUS they are organised in three governance levels:
-  * Standard metadata: common reference formats intended for the whole platform. They promote interoperability and consistent indexing.

-Standard metadata sets
+**Standard metadata sets**
 HORTUS includes a first group of Standard metadata sets that are designed for interoperability with well-known external platforms and infrastructures. These formats provide a stable “common language” for describing resources in a way that can be more easily mapped, exported, or re-used outside HORTUS (e.g., when depositing or aligning records with external catalogues). The initial standard formats include Zenodo, SSHOC, and CLARIN VLO. This list is not fixed: additional standard sets can be introduced over time, but to preserve consistency and trust, new standard formats are added through a moderated process, typically based on community needs and technical feasibility.
-Community metadata sets
+**Community metadata sets**
 In addition to standards, HORTUS foresees Community metadata sets that provide practical templates aligned with the types of resources commonly managed in the platform. These formats are intended to support discipline-oriented or project-oriented practices, offering field structures that are meaningful for researchers while still encouraging consistency across the community. The initial set includes a Generic template and dedicated community templates for major resource categories: Publications, Datasets, Images (2D), Audio and video, 3D models, and Software/tools. Like object types, this collection is expandable: HORTUS users can propose new community metadata sets (or improvements to existing ones), and the moderator board reviews and approves them to keep the catalogue coherent and avoid fragmented or incompatible formats.
