Sure. My main problem I find is actually finding what I need. Assume I want to read about the string split method. There are two places that I'd go to:

http://docs.python.org/2/library/string.html http://docs.python.org/2/library/stdtypes.html

I know the difference, but that's very confusing and annoying. It might be easier to have all string methods in one page, but separate them in terms of built-in standard library vs. the module ones.

Then I came across: http://docs.python.org/release/2.5.2/lib/string-methods.html which is a cleaner version.

Another thing I found in string a few days ago: the difference between capitalize() and title() on std string is not clarified at all in the docs.
