Remarks

Users perform actions such as delete, update, check in, or convert on Microsoft SharePoint Foundation objects. When a SharePoint Foundation object has some action performed on it by the user, the object generates an event. The event that specified that an action occurred must be received by an event host specified by the site. Content types, features, lists and list items, sites, webs, and workflows are all types of event hosts.
