-Encodings (PEP 263)
--------------------
+
+Source File Encoding
+--------------------
 
 Code in the core Python distribution should always use UTF-8 (or ASCII
 in Python 2).
 
-Files using ASCII (in Python 2) or UTF-8 (in Python 3) should not have a
-coding cookie.
+Files using ASCII (in Python 2) or UTF-8 (in Python 3) should not have
+an encoding declaration.
 
 In the standard library, non-default encodings should be used only for
 test purposes or when a comment or docstring needs to mention an author
