Issue #25179 : Preparatory cleanup of existing docs on string formatting
...
* Various sections were pointing to the section on the string.Formatter
class, when the section on the common format string syntax is probably more
appropriate
* Fix references to various format() functions and methods
* Nested replacement fields may contain conversions and format specifiers,
and this is tested; see Issue #19729 for instance

Enhance os.scandir() doc
...
Issue #26248 , patch written by Ben Hoyt:
1) Clarify that the return values of is_dir()/is_file()/etc are cached
separately for follow_symlinks True and False.
2) Be more specific about when the functions require a system call, and how it
relates to caching and follow_symlinks.
3) DRY up common stuff between is_dir and is_file by saying "Caching, system
calls made, and exceptions raised are as per is_dir" in is_file.
4) Tweak to the first paragraph of docs for is_dir/is_file to simplify: assume
the follow_symlinks=True default, then note the follow_symlinks=False
non-default case after.

Issue #18620 : Improve Pool examples in multiprocessing documentation
...
A single call to Pool.apply_async() will create only one process. To use all
of the pool's processes, it should be invoked multiple times:
with Pool(processes=4) as pool:
results = [pool.apply_async(func, ()) for i in range(4)]

#1753718 : clarify RFC compliance and bytes/string argument types.
...
Patch includes contributions by Isobel Hooper, incorporating suggestions from
Paul Winkler. Reviewed by Martin Panter.
In addition to accepting the corrections for the RFC compliance wording, I
went through and corrected all the argument and return types, and made the
pattern of how the arguments and return types are documented consistent.
So, this patch also addresses #20782 , though I had forgotten about that issue
and its patch.
