+Documentation and style guide
+=============================

+
+Code style
+~~~~~~~~~~
+
+pvlib python generally follows the `PEP 8 -- Style Guide for Python Code
+<https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/>`_. Maximum line length for code
+is 79 characters.
+
+pvlib python uses a mix of full and abbreviated variable names. See
+:ref:`nomenclature`. 
+Prefer full names for new contributions. This is especially important
+for the API. Abbreviations can be used within a function to improve the
+readability of formulae.
+
+Set your editor to strip extra whitespace from line endings. This
+prevents the git commit history from becoming cluttered with whitespace
+changes.
+
+Please see :ref:`Documentation` for information specific to documentation
+style.
+
+Remove any ``logging`` calls and ``print`` statements that you added
+during development. ``warning`` is ok.
+
+We typically use GitHub's
+"`squash and merge <https://help.github.com/articles/about-pull-request-merges/#squash-and-merge-your-pull-request-commits>`_"
+feature to merge your pull request into pvlib. GitHub will condense the
+commit history of your branch into a single commit when merging into
+pvlib-python/main (the commit history on your branch remains
+unchanged). Therefore, you are free to make commits that are as big or
+small as you'd like while developing your pull request.
+
+
+.. _documentation:

+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+.. _documentation-style:
+
+Documentation style
+-------------------
+
+Documentation must be written in
+`numpydoc format <https://numpydoc.readthedocs.io/>`_ format which is rendered
+using the `Sphinx Napoleon extension
+<https://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/master/usage/extensions/napoleon.html>`_.
+
+The numpydoc format includes a specification for the allowable input
+types. Python's `duck typing <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Duck_typing>`_
+allows for multiple input types to work for many parameters. pvlib uses
+the following generic descriptors as short-hand to indicate which
+specific types may be used:
+
+* dict-like : dict, OrderedDict, pd.Series
+* numeric : scalar, np.array, pd.Series. Typically int or float dtype.
+* array-like : np.array, pd.Series. Typically int or float dtype.
+
+Parameters that specify a specific type require that specific input type.
+
+Read the Docs will automatically build the documentation for each pull
+request. Please confirm the documentation renders correctly by following
+the ``docs/readthedocs.org:pvlib-python`` link within the checks
+status box at the bottom of the pull request.
+
+
+.. _documentation-units:
+
+Parameter names and units
+-------------------------
+
+When specifying parameters and their units, please follow these guidelines:
+
+- Use the recommended parameter name and units listed in the :ref:`nomenclature` where applicable.
+- Enclose units in square brackets after the parameter description, e.g., ``Air temperature. [°C]``.
+- Use unicode superscripts symbols for exponents, e.g. ``m⁻²``.
+
+  - Numbers: ``⁰``, ``¹``, ``²``, ``³``, ``⁴``, ``⁵``, ``⁶``, ``⁷``, ``⁸``, ``⁹``
+  - Negative exponent: ``⁻``
+  - Degree symbol: ``°``
+
+- Link to a brief description in the :ref:`nomenclature` section if it exists, via the sphinx role ``:term:`glossary_term```. For example, to document ``dni`` use:
+
+  .. code-block:: rst
+
+      dni : numeric
+          Direct normal irradiance, see :term:`dni`. [Wm⁻²]
+
+
+.. _reference_style:
+
+References
+----------
+pvlib-python is transitioning to the `IEEE reference style <https://journals.ieeeauthorcenter.ieee.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/7/IEEE_Reference_Guide.pdf>`_,
+which should be used in all new contributions. At minimum, a reference should
+include:
+
+* Author list (for more than six authors, list only the first with et al.)
+* Publication title
+* Publisher (journal title, laboratory name, etc.)
+* Year of publication
+* DOI (if available)
+
+The recommended citation style for several media types is as follows:
+
+**Journal article**:
+
+    Author initials and surname, "Title of article," abbreviated journal
+    title, vol. number, issue number, page numbers, Abbreviated Month Year.
+
+**Book**:
+
+    Author initials. Author Surname, "Chapter title" in Book Title, xth ed.
+    City of Publisher, (only U.S. State), Country: Abbrev. of Publisher, year,
+    ch. x, sec. x, pp. xxx–xxx.
+
+**Technical report**:
+
+    Author initials. Author Surname, "Report title" Abbrev. publisher name,
+    City of publisher, Abbrev. State, Country, Rep. xxx, year
+
+The example below shows how to cite material and generate a reference list
+using the IEEE style in a docstring::
+
+    This is the recommended citation for the pvlib-python project [1]_. There
+    are also some conference papers linked to pvlib, for example [2]_.
+    
+    Other types of reference you may find in the pvlib-python documentation
+    include books [3]_, technical reports [4]_, and websites [5]_.

+
+Building the documentation
+--------------------------
+
+Building the documentation locally is useful for testing out changes to the
+documentation's source code without having to repeatedly update a PR and have
+Read the Docs build it for you.  Building the docs locally requires installing
+pvlib python as an editable library (see :ref:`installation` for instructions).
+First, install the ``doc`` dependencies specified in the
+``EXTRAS_REQUIRE`` section of
+`setup.py <https://github.com/pvlib/pvlib-python/blob/main/setup.py>`_.
+An easy way to do this is with::
+
+    pip install pvlib[doc]    # on Mac:  pip install "pvlib[doc]"
+
+Note: Anaconda users may have trouble using the above command to update an
+older version of docutils. If that happens, you can update it with ``conda``
+(e.g. ``conda install docutils=0.21``) and run the above command again.
+
+Once the ``doc`` dependencies are installed, navigate to ``/docs/sphinx`` and
+execute::
+
+    make html
+
+Be sure to skim through the output of this command because Sphinx might emit
+helpful warnings about problems with the documentation source code.
+If the build succeeds, it will make a new directory ``docs/sphinx/build``
+with the documentation's homepage located at ``build/html/index.html``.
+This file can be opened with a web browser to view the local version
+like any other website. Other output formats are available; run ``make help``
+for more information.
+
+Note that Windows users need not have the ``make`` utility installed as pvlib
+includes a ``make.bat`` batch file that emulates its interface.
+
+
+.. _example-docstring:
+
+Example Docstring
+-----------------
+
+Here is a template for a function docstring that encapsulates the main
+features that may be used in any docstring. Note that not all sections are
+required for every function.

+        One-sentence summary of the function (no citations).
+
+        A longer description of the function. This can include citations
+        (references) to literature [1]_, websites [2]_, and other code elements
+        such as functions (:py:func:`pvlib.location.lookup_altitude`) and
+        classes (:py:class:`pvlib.location.Location`).
+
+        .. versionadded:: 0.0.1
+        There are many more purpose-specific directives, admonitions and such
+        available at `this link <admonitions>`_. E.g.: ``.. versionchanged::``,
+        ``.. deprecated::``,  ``.. note::`` and ``.. warning::``.
+

+        exponents : array-like
+            A list of exponents. [x⁰¹²³⁴⁵⁶⁷⁸⁹⁻].
+        degree_symbol : pandas.Series or pandas.DataFrame
+            It's different from superscript zero. [°].
+        time_ref : ``'UT'`` or ``'TST'``, default: ``'UT'``
+            ``'UT'`` (universal time) or ``'TST'`` (True Solar Time).
+        optional_arg : integer, optional
+            A description of ``optional_arg``. [Unitless].
+
+            Specify a suitable datatype for each parameter. Other common
+            data types include ``str``, ``bool``, ``float``, ``numeric``
+            and ``pandas.DatetimeIndex``.
+
+        Returns
+        -------
+        name : numeric
+            A description of the return value.
+
+        Raises
+        ------
+        ValueError
+            If ``poa_global`` is negative.
+        KeyError
+            If ``time_ref`` does not exist.
+
+        Notes
+        -----
+        This section can include additional information about the function.
+
+        For example, an equation using LaTeX markup:

+        .. math::
+
+            a = \left(\frac{b}{c}\right)^2
