Comment (by knsam):

 Replying to [comment:9 tscrim]:
 Thank you for the specific pointers.

 >For example, the `INPUT:` and `OUTPUT:` blocks should be:
 > {{{
 > INPUT:
 >
 > - ``arg_name`` -- Description of argument
 >
 > - ``second_arg`` -- Another description
 >
 > OUTPUT:
 >
 > Describing the output
 > }}}
 > Also, for multi-line doctests, it is just `...`, not `....:` (don't ask
 me why), I prefer `EXAMPLES:` (with the s no matter if it is 1 or many),
 and capitalized `.. SEEALSO::` and such blocks.

 1. OK, I think I understand what you mean about INPUT. Irrespective of the
 number of inputs, you have a bulleted list. Is this what we want?
 (Otherwise, I am not sure what is wrong with them.)

 2. Secondly, on the devel mailing list, I have seen that Keshav Kini was
 saying that it is better to have `....:` instead of `...` (there is a also
 a ticket on trac: #10458). So, I am now lost.

 3. About, EXAMPLES, I'd go ahead and change.  Capitalisation shall also be
 done.

 >A good check is to run `sage -docbuild reference html` (after rebuilding
 sage via `sage -b`) and look at the output in `.../sage-
 branch/doc/output/html/...` in your favorite web-browser (Firefox had some
 issues last I knew, this might have been fixed...).

 Sure thing. Being a newbie that I am, my eyes are not trained enough to
 catch oddities. ;-)

 Thank you for all the comments. I'll submit a patch to be applied on top
 of this. Thank you.
