The "class shelve.Shelf(dict, protocol=None, writeback=False, keyencoding='utf-8')" section still says "By default, version 0 pickles are used to serialize values.". This is incorrect. The default version has been 3 since this commit:

Good catch, thanks for the report! 3.2, 3.3 and 3.4 are now in security-fix-only so their docs won't be updated.
