+=======================================
+Deprecation: #95005 - Extbase EmptyView
+=======================================
+
+See :issue:`95005`
+
+Description
+===========
+
+To further clean up and streamline fluid view related functionality,
+extbase related view class :php:`TYPO3\CMS\Extbase\Mvc\View\EmptyView`
+has been deprecated.
+
+
+Impact
+======
+
+Using :php:`EmptyView` has been deprecated and logs a deprecation
+level error upon use.
+
+
+Affected Installations
+======================
+
+The class has been unused within TYPO3 core since its introduction in 4.5.
+It is rather unlikely instances have extensions using the class. The extension
+scanner finds usages with a strong match.
+
+
+Migration
+=========
+
+If rendering "nothing" by a view instance is needed for whatever reason, the
+same result can be achieved with a :php:`TYPO3\CMS\Fluid\View\StandaloneView`
+view instance by setting :php:`$view->setTemplateSource('')` and calling
+:php:`$view->render()`. But it's of course quicker to simply not render
+anything at all.
