[scikit-learn] Documentation proposal

[Jacob Schreiber]

Hi Gael

Thanks for the work! We are grateful for the work that other people do in
providing these types of tutorials and introductions as they lower the
barrier of entry for new people to get into machine learning. We generally
don't include these in the official sklearn documentation, in no small part
because it would be a time sink to decide from which among a large group of
tutorials should be included. That being said, perhaps we should consider
having a 'related tutorials' page similar to the 'related work' page,
serving as an aggregation of links?
