Academic citation of Python

That's a rather vague question.  What do you want to cite about python?
If you're just mentioning python, that shouldn't warrant a citation,
though a parenthetical note linking to python.org might be useful.

The standard documentation should be acceptable, or possibly a link to
the source code at a given revision.

Cheers,
Cliff
