 ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 The *copy* parameter of ``mathtext.Glue`` is deprecated (the underlying glue
 spec is now immutable).  ``mathtext.GlueSpec`` is deprecated.
+
+Signatures of `.Artist.draw` and `.Axes.draw`
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+The *inframe* parameter to `.Axes.draw` is deprecated.  Use
+`.Axes.redraw_in_frame` instead.
+
+Not passing the *renderer* parameter to `.Axes.draw` is deprecated.  Use
+``axes.draw_artist(axes)`` instead.
+
+These changes make the signature of the ``draw`` (``artist.draw(renderer)``)
+method consistent across all artists; thus, additional parameters to
+`.Artist.draw` are deprecated.
