Are there any tools which can autopopulate multiple features with metadata fields in ArcGIS?

Question

I have an enterprise geodatabase which contains hundreds of feature classes. I would like to publish the metadata from each feature to geoportal server in FGDC format. Is there an out of the box tool/script which allows users to pre-populate fields for all data sets in a geodatabase? Ideally, features such as originator, date, etc.

One method is to create the metadata you want common to all your datasets, you do this by filling in one dataset then export to xml. Create a model that cycles through your datasets importing the xml. This will overwrite any existing metadata. It is discussed here:
