PEP8 is referenced a lot but only a very small portion is included in the documentation (in the tutorial). I am a Python newbie and there may be other PEPs usually referenced which I might not be aware about. 

Maybe add selected PEPs to the documentation? I agree that adding rejected PEPs is no good but there may be PEPs worthy of addition to the documentation.
