~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Thanks to all of the contributors who participated in the Pandas Documentation
Sprint, which took place on March 10th. We had about 500 participants from over
30 locations across the world. You should notice that many of the
:ref:`API docstrings <api>` have greatly improved.

There were too many simultaneous contributions to include a release note for each
improvement, but this `GitHub search`_ should give you an idea of how many docstrings
were improved.

Special thanks to Marc Garcia for organizing the sprint. For more information,
read the `NumFOCUS blogpost`_ recapping the sprint.
