Issue #25179 : Preparatory cleanup of existing docs on string formatting
...
* There was a link pointing to the section on the string.Formatter class (and
multiple links in Python 3), when the section on the common format string
syntax is probably more appropriate
* Fix references to various format() functions and methods
* Nested replacement fields may contain conversions and format specifiers,
and this is tested in Python 3; see Issue #19729 for instance

Issue #18620 : Improve Pool examples in multiprocessing documentation
...
A single call to Pool.apply_async() will create only one process. To use all
of the pool's processes, it should be invoked multiple times:
with Pool(processes=4) as pool:
results = [pool.apply_async(func, ()) for i in range(4)]
