New submission from Antoine Wecxsteen <antoine@wecxsteen.net>: Hello, I believe there's a mistake in the documentation of library/warnings. https://docs.python.org/3.8/library/warnings.html#warnings.warn "This function raises an exception if the particular warning issued is changed into an error by the warnings filter see above." I think "see above" should be enclosed in brackets (or maybe completely removed as there is already a "(see above)" in the same text block).

Antoine Wecxsteen <antoine@wecxsteen.net> added the comment: Hello Pablo, Yes, I'll be happy to make a PR. I don't think it should be removed after all as, actually, the two "see above" do not refer to the same paragraph ("Warning Categories" and "The Warnings Filter" respectively). ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35732> _______________________________________

Antoine Wecxsteen <antoine@wecxsteen.net> added the comment: https://github.com/python/cpython/pull/11549 Reading the dev guide, I see there is actually no need to open an issue for mere typos. I should have made a PR directly... ---------- _______________________________________ Python tracker <report@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue35732> _______________________________________
