It's on the wiki as I remembered, covered on the multiple devices page.
https://btrfs.wiki.kernel.org/index.php/Using_Btrfs_with_Multiple_Devices#Removing_devices
(FWIW it's pretty safe to say that if it was in the wiki, at least in
the user docs section, I saw it before I ever did my first mkfs.btrfs,
as I pretty much scoured the wiki, then asked some questions not covered
there here as well, before I actually tried to use it. Unlike some people
I actually tend to read the instructions before trying to use stuff I buy,
too. =:^)
