Joris Van den Bossche commented on ARROW-18363:
-----------------------------------------------
There is also some work to include this upstream in the sphinx theme:
https://github.com/pydata/pydata-sphinx-theme/pull/780
> [Docs] Include warning when viewing old docs (redirecting to stable/dev docs)
> -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
>
> Key: ARROW-18363
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-18363
> Project: Apache Arrow
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: Documentation
> Reporter: Joris Van den Bossche
> Priority: Major
>
> Now we have versioned docs, we also have the old versions of the developers
> docs (eg
> https://arrow.apache.org/docs/9.0/developers/guide/communication.html). Those
> might be outdated (eg regarding communication channels, build instructions,
> etc), and typically when contributing / developing with the latest arrow, one
> should _always_ check the latest dev version of the contributing docs.
> We could add a warning box pointing this out and linking to the dev docs.
> For example similarly how some projects warn about viewing old docs in
> general and point to the stable docs (eg https://mne.tools/1.1/index.html or
> https://scikit-learn.org/1.0/user_guide.html). In this case we could have a
> custom box when at a page in /developers to point to the dev docs instead of
> stable docs
