For instance, you have a checklist of things to do. It could be a list of
bugs in a software you make. You have the list availible on your site so the
users of the software can see the list of issues you are working on.
As you fix bugs you remove them from the list. You mark up the list item
describing the bug with <del> to indicate that the bugs has been removed
from the list. It's still visible to the users as by default browsers will
render content within a <del> with a strikethrough.
Another example would can be seen here:
http://thomthom.net/storage/markup/html/dochistory/subversion.html
It's a sample script where you can go back and view a previous version of
the code.
I probably confused people in my initial post when I talked about how I came
across it and that in that particular case I used display: none; to hide it.
The main intent with the post was the general concept of marking up list
items as being removed, edited. I didn't mean that I wanted to hide it from
the viewer, but rather indicate the the item was for instance obsolete, as
in the example of the bug list.
Hope this makes it clearer.

You mean "removing" by that I used display: none; to hide it?
That was for the particular case I worked on where I used a javascript to
view the document at various versions.
The way I see if, if I have a document where I mark up changes and one of
them changes is an item in a list, I find it natrual to mark up the entire >
list item, including the <li>.
If you remove the List Item from the document (the way you're trying to),
what info does that convey and to *whom*?
I'm sorry, but I can't see the logic behind what you're trying to do.
