+event.description.debug Logging at the debug runlevel. This is low level, high volume information about tor's internals that generally isn't useful to users.
+event.description.info Logging at the info runlevel. This is low level information of important internal processes.
+event.description.notice Logging at the notice runlevel. This runlevel and above are shown to users by default, and includes general information the user should be aware of.
+event.description.warn Logging at the warning runlevel. These are problems the user should be aware of.
+event.description.err Logging at the error runlevel. These are critical issues that may prevent tor from working properly.

-event.description.circ Indicates that a circuit has changed.
-event.description.circ_minor Provides information about minor changes in our circuits.
-event.description.stream Indicates that a stream has changed.
-event.description.orconn Indicates a change in a relay connection.
+event.description.circ Indicates that a circuit we've established through the tor network has been created, changed, or closed.
+event.description.circ_minor Minor changes to our circuits, such as reuse of existing circuits for a different purpose.
+event.description.stream Communication over a circuit we've established. For instance, Firefox making a connection through tor.
+event.description.orconn Change in our connections as a relay.
 event.description.bw Event emitted every second with the bytes sent and received by tor.
 event.description.newdesc Indicates that a new descriptor is available.
-event.description.addrmap Indicates a new address mapping.
-event.description.authdir_newdescs Indicates that we just received new descriptors specific to directory authorities.
+event.description.addrmap New address mapping for our DNS cache.
+event.description.authdir_newdescs Indicates we just received a new descriptor. This is only used by directory authorities.
 event.description.descchanged Indicates that our descriptor has changed.
-event.description.ns Event for when our copy of the consensus has changed.
+event.description.ns Consensus information for an individual relay has changed. This could be due to receiving a new consensus or tor locally decides a relay is up or down.
 event.description.status_general Notification of a change in tor's state.
-event.description.status_client Notification of a change in tor's state.
-event.description.status_server Notification of a change in tor's state.
-event.description.guard Indicates that our guard relays have changed.
-event.description.stream_bw Event with the bytes sent and received by tor since the last such event on this stream.
-event.description.clients_seen Periodic event on bridge relays that provide a summary of our users.
-event.description.newconsensus Event for when we have a new consensus.
+event.description.status_client Notification of a change in tor's state as a client (ie user).
+event.description.status_server Notification of a change in tor's state as a relay.
+event.description.guard Indicates that the set of relays we use for our initial connection into the tor network (guards) have changed.
+event.description.stream_bw Event emitted every second with the bytes sent and received for a specific stream.
+event.description.clients_seen Periodic summary of the countries we've seen users connect from. This is only used by bridge relays.
+event.description.newconsensus Received a new hourly consensus of relays in the tor network.
 event.description.buildtimeout_set Indicates the timeout value for a circuit has changed.
-event.description.signal Indicates that tor has received and acted upon a signal being sent to the process.
-event.description.conf_changed Indicates that our configuration changed, either in a response to a SETCONF or RELOAD signal.
+event.description.signal Indicates that tor has received and acted upon a signal being sent to its process.
+event.description.conf_changed Indicates that our torrc configuration has changed. This could be in response to a SETCONF or RELOAD signal.
