This is a bit unclear, I think. Our policy should indeed be that all
examples and recommendations involving deprecated practice are removed
from the Guidelines at the time of deprecation, with the exception of
discussions or examples located within those parts of the Guidelines
providing reference documentation for them, for example the reference
documentation for an element specification which has been deprecated.
Such documentation should be modified to indicate that the element (etc)
concerned is now deprecated and to give guidance on what is now
recommended practice, but examples of old practice should be retained
until the element (etc) is actually removed from the Guidelines.
