|coro|

        Waits for a WebSocket event to be dispatched.

        This could be used to wait for a user to reply to a message,
        or to react to a message, or to edit a message in a self-contained
        way.

        The ``timeout`` parameter is passed onto :func:`asyncio.wait_for`. By default,
        it does not timeout. Note that this does propagate the
        :exc:`asyncio.TimeoutError` for you in case of timeout and is provided for
        ease of use.

        In case the event returns multiple arguments, a :class:`tuple` containing those
        arguments is returned instead. Please check the
        :ref:`documentation <discord-api-events>` for a list of events and their
        parameters.

        This function returns the **first event that meets the requirements**.

        Examples
        ---------

        Waiting for a user reply: ::

            @client.event
            async def on_message(message):
                if message.content.startswith('$greet'):
                    channel = message.channel
                    await channel.send('Say hello!')

                    def check(m):
                        return m.content == 'hello' and m.channel == channel

                    msg = await client.wait_for('message', check=check)
                    await channel.send('Hello {.author}!'.format(msg))

        Waiting for a thumbs up reaction from the message author: ::

            @client.event
            async def on_message(message):
                if message.content.startswith('$thumb'):
                    channel = message.channel
                    await channel.send('Send me that \N{THUMBS UP SIGN} reaction, mate')

                    def check(reaction, user):
                        return user == message.author and str(reaction.emoji) == '\N{THUMBS UP SIGN}'

                    try:
                        reaction, user = await client.wait_for('reaction_add', timeout=60.0, check=check)
                    except asyncio.TimeoutError:
                        await channel.send('\N{THUMBS DOWN SIGN}')
                    else:
                        await channel.send('\N{THUMBS UP SIGN}')


        Parameters
        ------------
        event: :class:`str`
            The event name, similar to the :ref:`event reference <discord-api-events>`,
            but without the ``on_`` prefix, to wait for.
        check: Optional[predicate]
            A predicate to check what to wait for. The arguments must meet the
            parameters of the event being waited for.
        timeout: Optional[:class:`float`]
            The number of seconds to wait before timing out and raising
            :exc:`asyncio.TimeoutError`.

        Raises
        -------
        asyncio.TimeoutError
            If a timeout is provided and it was reached.

        Returns
        --------
        Any
            Returns no arguments, a single argument, or a :class:`tuple` of multiple
            arguments that mirrors the parameters passed in the
            :ref:`event reference <discord-api-events>`.
