<p>Please place new portions of <code class="xref py py-obj docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">whats_new.rst</span></code> in the <code class="xref py py-obj docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">next_whats_new</span></code> directory.</p>
<p>When adding an entry please look at the currently existing files to
see if you can extend any of them.  If you create a file, name it
something like <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">cool_new_feature.rst</span></code> if you have added a brand new
feature or something like <code class="file docutils literal notranslate"><span class="pre">updated_feature.rst</span></code> for extensions of
existing features.</p>
<p>Please avoid using references in section titles, as it causes links to be
confusing in the table of contents.  Instead, ensure that a reference is
included in the descriptive text.  Include contents of the form:</p>
