The docs for SSLContext.set_ciphers [1] in Python 3 and ssl.wrap_socket [2] in Python 2 contain a link for "OpenSSL cipher list format", which points to an empty wiki page at https://wiki.openssl.org/index.php/Manual:Ciphers(1)#CIPHER_LIST_FORMAT

The OpenSSL cipher list format is currently documented here instead:
https://www.openssl.org/docs/manmaster/man1/ciphers.html

[1] https://docs.python.org/3/library/ssl.html#ssl.SSLContext.set_ciphers
[2] https://docs.python.org/2/library/ssl.html#ssl.wrap_socket
