So to avoid confusion, and since we are dealing with .xml. I think we should use the proper nomenclature and refer to .xml elements as "elements" instead of as "attributes". There are also actual attributes used in the .xml definition files (eg: parentClass). I think it will make modding more approachable for those who have a background in .xml and html. I'm editing the page to reflect this but wanted to explain the reason here so that it didn't seem like I was just being arbitrary.
