[qe-link-002] — Use doc links for cross-series references. Count: 1. Lines: 46. Example: raw link to python-programming.quantecon.org.
[qe-writing-001] — Use one sentence per paragraph. Count: 2. Lines: 48, 55. Example: 2 sentences in one paragraph.
Low severity#
None found.
Strengths#
The three-section split (About / Level / Credits) answers a prospective reader’s questions in the order they arise: what the series covers, what background it assumes, who built it.
The Level section states its prerequisite concretely - basic Python syntax and functions required, classes and Matplotlib ‘beneficial but not essential’ (lines 48-51) - instead of gesturing at ‘some programming background’.
Every named contributor in the credits list carries a linked GitHub handle (lines 61-72), so attribution is verifiable rather than decorative.
No math, no code and no figures, and the page does not manufacture any - it stays a front-matter page.
Recommended actions#
Split the two-sentence paragraphs at lines 48-51 and 55-57 so each sentence is its own paragraph (qe-writing-001, 2 occurrences).
Turn the raw URL to python-programming.quantecon.org at lines 45-46 into a
{doc}cross-reference (qe-link-002, 1 occurrence).Rewrap the source so no paragraph opens with a word orphaned by the previous wrap: line 36 begins ‘The’ alone, line 48 begins ‘In’ alone.
Strip the trailing double-space hard line breaks at lines 8, 19, 22, 31, 39, 46 and 51 - each sits at the end of a paragraph, where the forced line break has no rendered effect and only makes the source noisy.
