+Property parameters
+-------------------
+
+Property parameters are automatically added, depending on the input value. For
+example, for date/time related properties, the value type and timezone
+identifier (if applicable) are automatically added here::
+
+    >>> event = Event()
+    >>> event.add('dtstart', datetime(2010, 10, 10, 10, 0, 0,
+    ...                               tzinfo=pytz.timezone("Europe/Vienna")))

+    ...     in lines)
+
+
+You can also add arbitrary property parameters by passing a parameters
+dictionary to the add method like so::
+
+    >>> event = Event()
+    >>> event.add('X-TEST-PROP', 'tryout.',
+    ....          parameters={'prop1': 'val1', 'prop2': 'val2'})
