What I have tried:

Hi, I'm new to creating site map. Currently my requirement is to include title and description to the all pages and it's flow. While trying so I'm getting 3 same errors: Expecting end tag /siteMap . When I add that part further i get 'didn't expect /siteMapNode'. And also I was not getting intellisense while typing, i knew somewhere it is missing or have to add something. Please help me to resolve this.
For reference the live website is : http://voiceyouropinions.net/

Quite the opposite - you need to remove a few things!

You have a terminator / on

XML

<siteMapNode url="http://voiceyouropinions.net/debates" title="Debates"  description="Voice Your Opinions - Debates" />

Remove it.

Same problem with

XML

<siteMapNode url="http://voiceyouropinions.net/causes" title="Causes"  description="Voice Your Opinions - Causes" />

Finally you have two extra tag closing statements at the end that are not needed

XML

  </siteMapNode>
</siteMapNode>

If you tidy up your indentation these things can become quite easy to spot

My final version ended up as
