+Omitting values

-Avoids having to specify the value for each enumeration member::
+In many use-cases one doesn't care what the actual value of an enumeration
+is. There are several ways to define this type of simple enumeration:
 
-    >>> class AutoNumber(Enum):
+- use instances of :class:`object` as the value
+- use a descriptive string as the value
+- use a tuple as the value and a custom :meth:`__new__` to replace the
+  tuple with an :class:`int` value
+
+Using any of these methods signifies to the user that these values are not
+important, and also enables one to add, remove, or reorder members without
+having to renumber the remaining members.
+
+Whichever method you choose, you should provide a :meth:`repr` that also hides
+the (unimportant) value::
+
+    >>> class NoValue(Enum):
+    ...     def __repr__(self):
+    ...         return '<%s.%s>' % (self.__class__.__name__, self.name)
+    ...
