Some doesn't even have titles! Change its representation to follow the adopted standard, using ReST markups for it to be parseable by Sphinx: - Adjust title markups; - remove explicit numeration from titles; - mark literal blocks as such; - replace _foo_ by **foo** for emphasis; - adjust whitespaces and add blank lines where needed.
