This is OK.

Please in the future try not to re-fill previous text: it makes harder
for me to find your changes among a potentially large paragraph, such
as this one.

There's no need for the colon ':' after "see", and please delete the
space before the period that ends the last sentence above.

Otherwise, the documentation parts are OK.  Thanks.
