MSDN Attribute Schema

The table below provides a complete list of attributes that can be used in conjunction with the Visual Studio documentation. Users who are documenting Microsoft components or language elements should use the same set of attributes that appear in similar Microsoft topics. Complete usage is documented in this list. Partners documenting non-Microsoft components or language elements can define custom attributes, using this reference to ensure that existing attribute names are not duplicated.
