List of ASP.Net MVC "special" folders/files

Is there a list of the "special" folders and files in ASP.Net MVC? I'm talking about things like "Views/Shared/EditorTemplates" and "Views/_ViewStart.cshtml."

EDIT: Responding to CodeIgnoto's comment, I'm not asking about general architecture or how to create a site. I want a list of all the "special" folders and files that the ASP.Net MVC uses. There appear to be quite a few poorly documented features of the ASP.Net MVC framework that could be extremely useful. When I stumbled upon the EditorTemplates and DisplayTemplates folders, I was shocked that they weren't really documented anywhere.

I think they should be _Layout.cshtml, App_Codes, App_LocalResosources, App_GlobalResources, Themes, Global.asax, Web.config...

As of June 2013, MSDN has a page on general ASP.NET folders that is relatively complete, but I couldn't find anything more up-to-date than this page for MVC.

My search wasn't exactly extensive, but this document is the most relevant one that is referenced on the official website, so I guess you're right in that something is lacking here.

Unofficial or semi-official information seems to be enough for most people. If you want a definitive reference though, the sources are available.
