It is a useful filter but only in relatively rare cases as explained by the 
documentation.

But this filter is not (at least not primarily) related to judder caused by the 
telecine process but to remove judder caused by the pullup filter.

This is not an ideal quote: The sentence before this one contains a link that 
significantly helps understanding this sentence.
(I know you cannot quote the link but the fact that the sentence before is 
missing here makes me wonder if you have completely missed it because you have 
already heard the terms dejudder and pullup before.)

> What does the author mean by "pullup,dejudder"?

A sequence of two filters in a filter chain as in the following command line:
$ ffmpeg -i input -vf pullup,dejudder output...

Again, the formatting supports this reading, I understand that by itself this 
interpretation isn’t completely obvious but we don’t want to change the whole 
documentation to explain the formatting every time it appears.

That the described filter (dejudder) is (mostly or only) useful if the pullup 
filter was used.

Two possible circumstances are mentioned by the documentation: When the 
original content (before the telecine process) was 24fps (actually 
24000/1001fps, this looks like documentation bug) or 25fps.

You should imo only specify this filter in your inverse telecine process once 
you verified it is needed to smooth-iron the timestamps.

This is a filter description trying to help general understanding: The filter 
doesn’t know about DVDs not even mpeg program streams, but the reader might.

The filter may also be helpful if the input was badly inverse telecined and 
contains uneven timestamps.
