@SaraInCode we don't claim issues in this repository, no need to do that.

@ngoldbaum I couldn't assign the issue to me, so just mentioned thatI'll be working on it to avoid duplicity. How usually its done here?

When you submit a PR, link back to this issue with
fixes #28470. We don't try to prevent duplicate work. For trivial PRs like this, the negotiations to determine who is going to do the work is not worth it, and for more complicated PRs it is usually clear which of the core developers will work on it.SaraInCode commentedon Mar 11, 2025
Got it! I'll link this PR to issue
#28470when I submit it. Thanks for the clarification!mattip commentedon Jan 15, 2026
The link is generated by sphinx. I am not sure why it is pointing to the wrong place. This problem will go away once we remove the soon-to-be-deprecated np.char documentation.

Hey! Will take a look at this if no one else taken it. Thank you!

This is very likely fixed in the latest numpydoc release due to numpy/numpydoc#706
Try it out.
