    - The links to `stddev_samp` etc are already removed in the latest commit. 
    - About collecting all the example into one, I think that'll work for this 
particular one. But I'm not sure about this in general. These methods are still 
spread out in `.R` file. And if we decide to change the grouping of these 
functions later on, it will be very difficult if we don't have examples in 
those methods. 
    - For a method that is defined for multiple classes but meaning are 
drastically different, I agree that it's best to document by class. One 
downside is a generic `?coalesce` can only go to one help page,  e.g., the help 
for SparkDataFrame, not the other classed. However, we can add links to the 
`coalesce` methods for the other classes in the `SeeAlso` section.
