Yes, we are not linking back from the docstrings to the narrative
documentation. On the other hand, the docstrings are meant to be seen in
an interpretor. Do you expect to find links from the docstrings of the
Python standard library to the Python tutorial? I don't think that this
is tenable. Having a look at the front page of the scikit-learn website,
or at the user guide content seems like the minimum to ask from our
users.

That's because we have a bug in the generation of the website. In the
mean time, it is just the docstring of the function, which you have
access to using the help in the Python interpreter.

Fabian, this bug is actually really troubling. It's definitely impacting
our users. Could we either revert to Sphinx 1.0.0 to generate the
website, or fix it (first option seems easier to me :$).
