AI Summary: This GitHub issue proposes refactoring the pandas codebase to replace its current dynamic docstring system, which uses decorators like `@Appender`, `@Substitution`, and `@doc` along with `shared_docs` templates. The goal is to replace these with hardcoded, inlined docstrings directly after function signatures. This change aims to improve clarity for new contributors and enable static analysis tools like Ruff to validate docstrings directly, moving away from a subprocess-based validation system.

DOC: pivot function about 1 month ago

AI Summary: The user reports that the documentation for `DataFrame.pivot` is unclear regarding the "object" type hint for the `index`, `columns`, and `values` parameters. They are unsure if "object" refers to a MultiIndex, None, or Series, and provide a Stack Overflow link to illustrate the confusion. This issue requests clarification in the documentation to specify the actual accepted types.

AI Summary: The task is to add a Polars engine to the pandas `read_csv` function. This would allow users to leverage Polars' speed for CSV reading, improving pandas' performance. The task requires understanding both pandas and Polars APIs, and integrating them effectively. It also involves testing the new functionality thoroughly.
