Keep the page though, because people might still rely on it (the traffic shows that they do).
Instead of our own manual we now give links to the 3rd-party ones.

When overriding the `__new__` method of an enum, the underlying data type should be created directly; i.e. .
member = object.__new__(cls)
member = int.__new__(cls, value)
member = str.__new__(cls, value)
Calling `super().__new__()` finds the lookup version of `Enum.__new__`, and will now raise an exception when detected.
It is now possible to deprecate passing keyword arguments for
keyword-or-positional parameters with Argument Clinic, using the new
'/ [from X.Y]' syntax.
(To be read as "positional-only from Python version X.Y")
