+#### Node.js warning names
+
+There are no strict guidelines for warning types (as identified by the `name`
+property) emitted by Node.js. New types of warnings can be added at any time.
+A few of the warning types that are most common include:
+
+* `'DeprecationWarning'` - Indicates use of a deprecated Node.js API or feature.
+  Such warnings must include a `'code'` property identifying the
+  [deprecation code][].
+* `'ExperimentalWarning'` - Indicates use of an experimental Node.js API or
+  feature. Such features must be used with caution as they may change at any
+  time and are not subject to the same strict semantic-versioning and long-term
+  support policies as supported features.
+* `'MaxListenersExceededWarning'` - Indicates that too many listeners for a
+  given event have been registered on either an `EventEmitter` or `EventTarget`.
+  This is often an indication of a memory leak.
+* `'TimeoutOverflowWarning'` - Indicates that a numeric value that cannot fit
+  within a 32-bit signed integer has been provided to either the `setTimeout()`
+  or `setInterval()` functions.
+* `'UnsupportedWarning'` - Indicates use of an unsupported option or feature
+  that will be ignored rather than treated as an error. One example is use of
+  the HTTP response status message when using the HTTP/2 compatibility API.
