Ammar Askar <ammar@ammaraskar.com> added the comment: Thank you for the report Patrick! For reference this is on the lexical analysis page: https://docs.python.org/3/reference/lexical_analysis.html
A non-normative HTML file listing all valid identifier characters for Unicode 4.1 can be found at https://www.dcl.hpi.uni-potsdam.de/home/loewis/table-3131.html.
Looking at the page on https://web.archive.org/web/20200312045240/https://www.dcl.hpi.uni-potsdam.d... it seems like it was just a giant table containing all the valid XID_START and XID_CONTINUE characters. We could just remove the link or point it to the section in the current unicode database we use https://www.unicode.org/Public/13.0.0/ucd/DerivedCoreProperties.txt where it lists all the characters:
# Derived Property: XID_Start
