On [https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Text/replaceWholeText Web/API/Text/replaceWholeText],
Basic Support for Chrome had:
 
<pre>
<td>
  {{CompatVersionUnknown}} [1] [2]
</td>
...
<p>[1] Chrome 41 has removed this method.</p>
<p>[2] Before Chrome 30 and Opera 17, the argument wasn't mandatory, like required by the specs.</p>
</pre>
 
If both footnotes were relevant, then they could be combined.  However, like most cases, these footnotes are used to document changing support across versions.  In the Compatibility API, each footnote should refer to the single version where support changed.
 
The changed version looks like this:


<pre>
<td>
  {{CompatVersionUnknown}} [1] <br>
  30.0 <br>
  {{CompatNo}} 41.0
</td>
...
<p>[1] Before Chrome 30, the argument wasn't mandatory, like required by the specs.</p>
</pre>

No cells in the compatibility table included the footnote reference [{footnote_id}]. This could be due to a issue importing the compatibility cell, a typo on the MDN page, or an extra footnote that should be removed from the MDN page.

* Take care of any footnote_multiple issues, which usually result in a footnote_unused warning as well.
