Wes McKinney commented on ARROW-8078:
-------------------------------------
I think the reason may have to do with case sensitivity due to the existence of
both {{Field}} and {{field}} in the {{pyarrow}} namespace.
See related issue https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/4874
This may be because the docs were generated on macOS with a case insensitive
filesystem
> [Python] Missing links in the docs regarding field and schema DataTypes
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-8078
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-8078
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Otávio Vasques
> Priority: Major
>
> The current page of Data Types of the pyarrow documentation has a list of the
> different objects and types that you can use to build custom pyarrow schema.
> For a lot of them is possible to click in the white box around the
> module/object name and access a detailed description of the module/object.
> This is true for almost all the items but for field and schema it's not
> possible to access the detailed description althoug the corresponding URL
> (replacing the datatype for a known link with these examples) exists.
> Not sure if this is a bug or this boxes should point to another page but if
> not I think they should point to the correspoding detailed descriptions.
> Data Types: [https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/api/datatypes.html]
> Sample Type Int 32:
> [https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/generated/pyarrow.int32.html#pyarrow.int32]
> Field: [https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/generated/pyarrow.field.html]
> Schema: [https://arrow.apache.org/docs/python/generated/pyarrow.schema.html]
