+Note that in the example above:

+1.  Only a subset of columns are described for the sake of brevity.
+    In a real dataset, all other columns SHOULD also be described.
+
+1.  The `channel` column contains a list of values that are separated
+    by a non-default delimiter (that is, *not* with a comma `,`).
+    See the `Delimiter` field in the accompanying JSON sidecar.
+    Thus, the channels related to the event in the third row of the example
+    are called `F,1`, `F,2`, and `Cz`.
+
+1.  The example contains a column called `artifact`.
+    This column is not defined in BIDS, and constitutes additional, arbitrary
+    (that is, unofficial) metadata.
+    In the present case, it is used to describe artifacts in the data,
+    in reference to the `channel` column.
+    Note that in practice, such a hypothetical `artifact` column should make
+    use of the powerful HED system for documenting events, see below.
+
+Events MAY also be documented in machine-actionable form
+using HED (Hierarchical Event Descriptor) tags.
+This type of documentation is particularly useful for datasets likely to be used
+in event-related analyses.
+See [Hierarchical Event Descriptors](../appendices/hed.md)
