The meta data in the tags may use the same names in a name=value pair to mean something different according to who defined the meta tag contents.

The scheme property reflects the SCHEME="..." HTML tag attribute and defines separate namespaces so the meta information can be interpreted more correctly. It offers a context within which the meta data values are defined.
