DOC: Fixed warning about convert_objects in doc build
State: closed

`convert_objects` doesn't exist anymore, and the example in the release notes when it was added is failing and generating a warning in the doc build:
```
Exception in /home/travis/build/pandas-dev/pandas/doc/source/whatsnew/v0.11.0.rst at block ending on line None
Specify :okexcept: as an option in the ipython:: block to suppress this message

I think all the CI failures are unrelated, not sure what's broken there.

But looks like the warning is still in the docs. @nadebu can you see if you find what's wrong?

@WillAyd added more info to the description.
@nadebu sorry, it have been working the last days on the documentation, and this has already been fixed in the meantime.
Hopefully you can find another issue to work on! (there are some labeled with good-first-issue)
Also, specifically for https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/issues/24173 (flake8 in the docs), there are still files left to do, so very welcome to open PRs for those.
Sorry I missed all this conversation. My mail was being diverted and still familiarising myself with github's messaging.
