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!
