From pandas-dev/pandas review history

Nobody asked me. I read the files this pull request changes and found three conventions the project has settled before, each linked to where it was settled.

• Place whatsnew entries in the file for the next release, not the current one.
  Established in a correction by pyarchana.

  Raised because it changes doc/source/whatsnew/v3.0.0.rst.

• The first line of a docstring should be a single line summary.
  Established in a correction by pyarchana and pandas-dev/pandas#62880.

  Raised because it changes pandas/core/groupby/groupby.py.

  This helps maintain consistency and clarity in documentation across the project.

• Always include a whatsnew entry in the appropriate file for any bug fixes or new features.
  Established in pandas-dev/pandas#64119 and #61985.

  Raised because it changes doc/source/whatsnew/v3.0.0.rst.

  This helps keep the documentation up to date and informs users of changes.

If this is wrong or out of date, a maintainer can say so: reply @precedent <the convention as it actually is> and I will hold the correction from then on.

@precedent whatsnew entries go in the current release file, not the next one.

Recorded, from pyarchana.

Place whatsnew entries in the current release file, not the next one.

This contradicts what I held before, so that rule is retired: Place whatsnew entries in the file for the next release, not the current one.

Answers from here on cite this, attributed to you rather than inferred from a pattern. If the wording is wrong, say it again and I will hold the newer one.
