(That means, you can rename/move it or create a new page with the same content and attribution but without the prefix, if there is a standard API that corresponds to the same - prefix less - name with the same purpose)

Does that mean we should be marking the MSCSS Matrix Object proprietary and a candidate for deletion as well? or is that separate?

Thanks!

Yes, you’re correct. When we donated the content from MSDN, we donated everything we had, knowing that there was proprietary content in there that we need to weed out. Please mark these as candidates for deletion, and you should also feel free to alter or remove any text within a topic that is proprietary, unless it is pointing out different implementation behaviors or something like that.

Thanks,

There are 19 pages in the CSS Docs for -ms prefixed properties.

Like this: http://docs.webplatform.org/wiki/css/properties/ms-grid-row-align


But that seems inconsistent. We don't have separate pages for all the other prefixes, right? Everything for CSS Grid should be on grid pages, not on separate (separately-alaphbetized) pages — yes?

I'm thinking these should be deleted or deprecated... but I'm not sure.

They are:
ms-grid-columns
ms-grid-row
ms-grid-row-align
ms-grid-row-span
ms-grid-rows
ms-scroll-chaining
ms-scroll-limit
ms-scroll-limit-xMin
ms-scroll-limit-xMax
ms-scroll-yMax
ms-scroll-limit-yMin
ms-scroll-rails
ms-scroll-snap-points-x
ms-scroll-snap-points-y
ms-scroll-snap-type
ms-scroll-snap-x
ms-scroll-snap-y
ms-scroll-translation
ms-touch-select

Plus, MediaWiki problematically removes the dash, so the titles of these pages are themselves a mistake. It should be "-ms-grid-row" not "ms-grid-row". If we do have pages like these, we'll have to figure out what to do about the fact they are so misleading without the prefix dash.
