+### Documentation Style for Members
+
+When creating a new public member, the member must be annotated with sufficient documentation. This should include the
+following, but not limited to:
+
+* `<summary>` summarizing the purpose of the method.
+* `<param>` or `<typeparam>` explaining the parameter.
+* `<return>` explaining the type of the returned member and what it is.
+* `<exception>` if the method directly throws an exception.
+
+The length of the documentation should also follow the ruler as suggested by our
+[Visual Studio Code workspace](Discord.Net.code-workspace).
