Dear Avro Developers,

While doing some research as part of my employment, I noticed a couple of
issues about your website. I'm not sure if the dev mailing list is the
right place for issues with the website, but if not, I would appreciate it
if you could point me in the right direction.

Mainly, I saw that on
https://avro.apache.org/docs/1.11.1/getting-started-python/ it has on the
schema:

{"name": "favorite_color", "type": ["string", "null"]}

But further down it says "Since the field favorite_color has type ["int",
"null"], ...". The code snipped that sentence relates to seems to make
sense, it's just the explanation that seems mistaken.

I also noticed that the code snippet formatted like so in the v1.11.0 docs:

is not formatted properly in the v1.11.1 docs (which I notice have a
generally different style, so this is probably just a transitionary issue):

Finally, I saw that the link to the contribution guides (
https://avro.apache.org/docs/contribution-guidelines/) which appears at the
bottom of the community page (https://avro.apache.org/community/) 404s -
which is why I thought of directing this information here.

Thanks for the software!

Kind regards,
William Taylor
