Description

Removes {{DOMxRef("External"}} and the containing section.

Motivation

The interface is deprecated (presumably not supported by any browser?), and the page doesn't exist.

Additional details

See: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/HTML_DOM_API#web_app_and_browser_integration_interfaces
