I may be wrong, but we may need not this hardcoded id, as the other ones in this doc may be due to legacy links support. Let us see what others think.

It would be nice if we add a "removed: v10.x.x". I guess that might not be parsed properly tough. @vsemozhetbyt do you have a suggestion for this?

We may add the case for removing to adding and deprecating. It seems these two function need to be updated accordingly:

node/tools/doc/common.js

Line 14 in 2bea9ce

function extractAndParseYAML(text) {

node/tools/doc/html.js

Line 258 in 2bea9ce

function parseYAML(text) {

(Just grepping 'added' or 'deprecated' and adding a similar case may do)

Also, should there be a short explanation on why this error code was removed? Something on the lines of

Like fs.watchFile(), this situation is now silently ignored.

@SirR4T I think it's OK to have removed in, but the version number should be accurate. In the case of ERR_FS_WTCHER_ALREADY_STARTED, it has never been released in any version, since the commit that added it (6c25f2e) and the commit that removed it (301f6cc) are both present from v10.0.0...v10.8.0 - which means when v10.0.0 was out, the error was not even there. Therefore, this error code has only appeared in nightly and canary releases.

If we do add a short explanation, we can make this in changes blocks.

got it. If the error codes never actually touched the releases, what should the description look like? is having both added: v10.0.0 and removed: v10.0.0 ok?

@joyeecheung : also, I have added versions added and versions removed here, for all the commits which either added or removed the error codes. Eyeballing the versions, it seems to me that the wherever github mentions vA.a.a .. vB.b.b, we should be mentioning the vB.b.b in the docs. (For both added, as well as removed.) will that be correct?

I think annotating them as added: v10.0.0 removed: v10.0.0 is more confusing than helpful. A note in the docs about that would be enough, maybe something like:

This error code has never been released and only existed in nightly builds.
