The page you link here is WAYS better than the standard documentation

Generally speaking, the effbot zone contains a lot of improvements
over the standard docs which are lacking in various areas.
I have always wondered why they are kept separated. Wouldn't be nice
to have the standard
docs integrated with the effbot docs? Are there plans in this sense
and if not, why not?
There are tons of great supplementary material out there, on blogs,
personal documentation collections (such as effbot.org), cookbook sites,
etc. I don't think all that material absolutely must be posted to
python.org, but Python users would definitely benefit from improved
cross-linking.
And this is, of course, something I've lobbied for many times, e.g.

http://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2005-December/355625.html
http://effbot.org/zone/idea-seealso.htm
but I haven't yet figured out how to get something to happen [1]. All
ideas are welcome.

1) Well, I guess the new Sphinx tool might have gotten some inspiration
by my work in this domain:

and Andrew Kuchling did some preliminary work for the old Latex work flow:
