If you want to be sure it builds, run "make html" in >Doc. We should try to keep the documentation buildable at all times so that it will remain visible to everyone at http://docs.python.org/dev/ .

For small doc changes, it is usually not too much of a challenge because you're either modifying existing text or are copying in existing markup from the surrounding text.
