Bug report

It seem like for a while the content of matpltolib.__doc__ is missing from the online documentation.

https://matplotlib.org/3.3.0/api/matplotlib_configuration_api.html starts with "backend management"

https://matplotlib.org/1.2.1/api/matplotlib_configuration_api.html is the latest version that I find contains

This is an object-oriented plotting library.

A procedural interface is provided by the companion pyplot module, which may be imported directly, e.g:

from matplotlib.pyplot import *
To include numpy functions too, use:

from pylab import *

(which would make sens as 9f0e939 (v1.2.1-892-g919c59ad36) removed an ".. automodule", instead of simply removing :members: ?

It seem strange that documentation that users would get with matplotlib??, is not present in the website, this also make bug report to this documentation less likely.
