 # supernova 2.5.1
 
 * Fix issue where models with long calls (i.e. `deparse(model$call)` results in a vector of length greater than 1) would break the functionality of `listwise_delete()`
 * Change print method for `generate_models()` to look clean and comprehensible in Jupyter Notebooks.

 # supernova 2.5.0
 
 * Change the order of the pairs when plotting `pairwise()` so that the plot matches the table.

 ## Release summary
 
-* Fix issue where models with long calls (i.e. `deparse(model$call)` results in a vector of length greater than 1) would break the functionality of `listwise_delete()`
-* Change print method for `generate_models()` to look clean and comprehensible in Jupyter Notebooks.
-
+* Deprecate unused function alias (it was confusing some users and does nothing different)
