Comment(by SimonKing):

 Replying to [comment:77 jsrn]:
 > Question: On line 1064 of sage_autodoc.py after your patch, you remove
 self and cls if they are there. Why do you use that check:

 'self'):

 Good question. I don't know if there was a concrete reason.

 I guess I did this because it is in
 `sage_autodoc.MethodDocumenter.format_args`, hence, we already know that
 we are dealing with a method. So, I was inclined to simply delete
 `argspec[0][0]`, but then I thought "better safe than sorry".

 The commented-out line could be removed, if you wish.

 Looking forward!
