... and I would support 100% the option of implementing the missing feature
instead of correcting the log message :)
This is also the case with other RAW files (and RAW+JPEG imports). I
personally saw the same on DNG and ORF images. I think Shotwell somehow stays
away from writing metadata even to JPEG files when they are paired with RAW
files. I'm not sure about the NEF format, maybe it's not even possible to
write metadata "into" these files? For DNG it should work though I think.
There is at least one ticket in the Shotwell bugzilla (or whatever) but last
time I saw it -- was still not resolved.

This came up some years ago, but I haven’t been able to formulate a search
pattern which reveals a solution on the shotwell-list.
Reading the shotwell.log file, I find a claim that metadata are being written
to a file...
L 17293 2014-09-23 11:00:55 [MSG] MetadataWriter.vala:623: Completed writing
metadata for [77831] /home/michaelhendry/Desktop/Parallels Shared
Folders/Home/Pictures/Shotwell Library/2014/09/17/DSC_1969.NEF
… but when I examine this file with “exiv2 -p a” the tag I attached to the file
in Shotwell is nowhere to be seen.
The same goes for the companion file DSC_1969.JPG (which was generated by the
Camera).
If I add a tag to a stand-alone JPG file, I can find that tag later, using
“exiv2 -p a”.
One question: Is this going to be fixed in Shotwell?
One suggestion: If it’s not possible to write the tag to the file, the message
in the log should be changed to indicate that.
