Comment:
Front page:
* I figured out the different typefaces - it's the different types of
links. Italics only for Sphinx links. I don't know whether this is worth
fixing - after #6495 it should be easy. The :class: link probably should
be different, though.
* I'm torn between putting the programming ones immediately after the
intro ones or having them where they are. What do you think?
* Modeling Mathematics - that could be very confusing. I'd use a word
other than "modeling", as that means something very different to most
people.
* If you want to add even more things, please finish the review of the
Quickstarts at #13381!
The introductory tutorial:
* "If you are browsing this document as a static web page, " - probably
add something here that the active instructions assume that you are
browsing it live. That's implicit, but explicit is better than implicit,
according to Python...
* "mathematics like this sin(x)-y3 by using dollar signs" - maybe one
should have \sin or something? The "sin" shouldn't be italicized.
* "Compute the products: M*v and v*M." - I'd use \cdot here
* "Still, it is possible to define symbolic functions without first
defining its variables:" - "their variables", maybe
* "colour it red" - I don't know whether US English is the Sage standard.
If it is, make it "color" :-)
Patchbot is giving this a green light, so I'd say fix the (mostly very
minor) things I pointed out and you've got a nice upgrade to the Sage
documentation on your hands!
