If you want to delete metadata files, you can open a *Terminal.app* window and enter `dot_clean -m <folder>`. |

Restore previous explanation
The `._*` files contain metadata about the files some applications write in additional to the file content. On macOS, this metadata can be stored alongside the file on the filesystem, but on remote volumes, with no metadata support, an auxiliary file is created to contain this information. You can delete metadata on files using `xattr -d <filename>`.

A strikedthrough header doesn't make sens therefore keeping the previous form isn't very userfriendly. As the information about the metadata location is not an actual issue it shoudn't be placed in the issue section
