Bug report

In the documentation there are several blocks that are indented incorrectly but don't produce errors when the documentation is built. Two common mistakes wrap the misindented block into an additional blockquote or definition list, causing extra indentation in the rendered output but no other visible problems (at least with the current theme).

This is a follow-up of python/devguide#1178 and the linked PRs that fixed a list of similar issues in the devguide repository.

I'm working on a few PRs that fix these errors in the docs.
