+### Old aliases for type tests in guards
+
+The type test aliases `atom/1`, `binary/1`, `float/1`, `function/1`,
+`integer/1`, `list/1`, `number/1`, `pid/1`, `port/1`, `record/2`,
+`reference/1`, and `tuple/1`, for the respective tests `is_atom/1`,
+`is_binary/1`, `is_float/1`, ..., `is_tuple/2`, have been deprecated since
+before OTP R13 and have been scheduled for removal in OTP 30. Note that
+these aliases could only be used as guard tests at the top level. For
+example, in `{X, Y} when float(X), X =:= float(Y) -> ...` the first use of
+`float/1` is a type test alias, but the second use is the normal
+integer-to-float conversion BIF, because it occurs inside the `=:=`. The
+aliases were never recognized outside guards.
