+A doc comment that is not attached to anything has been encountered.
+
+Erroneous code example:
+
+```compile_fail,E0584
+trait Island {
+    fn lost();
+
+    /// I'm lost!
+}
+```
+
+A little reminder: a doc comment has to be placed before the item it's supposed
+to document. So if you want to document the `Island` trait, you need to put a
+doc comment before it, not inside it. Same goes for the `lost` method: the doc
+comment needs to be before it:
+
+```
+/// I'm THE island!
+trait Island {
+    /// I'm lost!
+    fn lost();
+}
+```
