At the moment some pages in the Blender manual show images from Blender 2.7X. I will attempt to go through as many pages as possible and update these images to match more recent versions of Blender. If I don't know how a feature works and as a result can't replicate the image, then I will make a note of it here and let someone else update it.
This is simply a quality of life feature. Many of these images still show settings available in later versions of Blender, but it may confuse some new users.
While searching for these images, I will also check to see if the pages that contains the images also contain outdated information like incorrect menu locations or old keyboard shortcuts and fix them where possible.
I will also submit this fix as a series of patches, breaking the patch up into the sections defined in the manual (Getting started, User interface, Editors, etc).

Others (E.G. Addons): Outside of my knowledge.
Sections I haven't updated (Primarily due to a lack of knowledge on my part):
Section | Part that needs updating |
Editors->Dope Sheet | Text needs to be checked. |
Editors->NLA | Entire sections text and images needs to be checked. |
Editors->File Browser | Entire page needs updating for the 2.82 file browser T73319. |
Scenes and objects->Objects->Editing->Relations | Text needs to be checked. |
Render->Eevee->Materials->Nodes Support | Node support needs to be checked over by someone with more experience with EEVEE. This information should be fairly up to date. |
Render->Render output | All the images seem up to date, the text needs to be checked over by someone more knowledgeable |
