+An unknown meta item was used.
+
+Erroneous code example:
+
+```compile_fail,E0541
+#[deprecated(
+    since="1.0.0",
+    reason="Example invalid meta item. Should be 'note'") // error: unknown meta item
+]
+fn deprecated_function() {}
+
+Meta items are the key/value pairs inside of an attribute. The keys provided must be one of the
+valid keys for the specified attribute.
+
+To fix the problem, either remove the unknown meta item, or rename it it you provided the wrong
+name.
+
+In the erroneous code example above, the wrong name was provided, so changing it to the right name
+fixes the error.
