At https://docs.python.org/2/library/multiprocessing.html#authentication-keys there is a typo in the documentation:

"If authentication is requested but do authentication key is specified ..."

s/b (emphasis added)

"If authentication is requested but **no** authentication key is specified..."
msg266394 - (view) Author: Phoenix (phx) Date: 2016-05-25 22:44
Later in the same paragraph:

"This value will automatically inherited by"

s/b (emphasis added)

"This value will **be** automatically inherited by"

Or, if you prefer your infinitives unsplit:

"This value will be inherited automatically by"

The “do authentication” error is already fixed in Python 3, but the other error also exists in Python 3. This patch also fixes related errors in Python 3 that I found.

Python 2 patch, including the do → no fix

+    and a label into one mega widget. It can be used be used to simplify

Isn't "be used" duplicated?

Indeed it is duplicated! I must have read this in my head many times before pushing it, and never picked it up.

I'm impressed by the number of duplicates left after all past cleanups.
