Please do not post links as a question.  Any answer I give will not have context for future readers and they should not have to click a link to understand.

In your Page model keyword and searchvol are the same thing, they will both always reference the _id(s) of the model item(s).  Even though you can have different values for each field, they will not reference a single field within a model, but the entire model item..

You want to use the map feature... http://keystonejs.com/docs/database/#lists-example

var Keyword = new keystone.List('Keyword', {
    map: { name: 'searchvol' }
});

First of all, I understand that its better to put the context here. however I didn't to create multiple copies of this question around the web. and thought some1 could get some points on stack overflow in the process.

The questions till persists here, is how do I actually get the value of this mapping into the table. because I tried to do what you mentioned and it just changed the value of the name of the keyword to the value of the searchvol.

I want to be able add a reference a keyword, and have keystone admin UI grab any other attributes I might need that are related to that keyword, such as search volume.
