Comment (by jhpalmieri):

 Re your change in the `LaTeX Typesetting` section from
 {{{
 In ReST documentation, you use backticks \` to mark LaTeX code to be
 typeset. In Sage docstrings, you may also use dollar signs instead.
 }}}
 to
 {{{
 In ReST documentation LaTeX code is allowed, and is marked with
 **backticks or
 dollar signs**:
 }}}
 This is not entirely accurate: in ReST documentation, you can't use dollar
 signs; those are only available in Sage's documentation. Maybe say "In
 Sage's ReST documentation ..."?

 I would also point out that `$$math expression$$` is old-fashioned and
 deprecated in LaTeX; `\[math expression]\]$` is much preferred.

 Why remove the instructions about `:nowrap:`? Is the warning about it no
 longer accurate?
