-If you want to update your code using supported standard library modules:
-
-* ``cgi.FieldStorage`` can typically be replaced with
-  :func:`urllib.parse.parse_qsl` for ``GET`` and ``HEAD`` requests, and the
-  :mod:`email.message` module or :pypi:`multipart` PyPI project for ``POST``
-  and ``PUT``.
-
-* ``cgi.parse()`` can be replaced by calling :func:`urllib.parse.parse_qs`
-  directly on the desired query string, except for ``multipart/form-data``
-  input, which can be handled as described for ``cgi.parse_multipart()``.
-
-* ``cgi.parse_multipart()`` can be replaced with the functionality in the
-  :mod:`email` package (e.g. :class:`email.message.EmailMessage` and
-  :class:`email.message.Message`) which implements the same MIME RFCs, or
-  with the :pypi:`multipart` PyPI project.
-
-* ``cgi.parse_header()`` can be replaced with the functionality in the
-  :mod:`email` package, which implements the same MIME RFCs. For example,
-  with :class:`email.message.EmailMessage`::
-
-      from email.message import EmailMessage
-      msg = EmailMessage()
-      msg['content-type'] = 'application/json; charset="utf8"'
-      main, params = msg.get_content_type(), msg['content-type'].params
