The page on compound statements defines compound statements as:

compound_stmt ::=  if_stmt
                   | while_stmt
                   | for_stmt
                   | try_stmt
                   | with_stmt
                   | funcdef
                   | classdef

The full grammar specification on the other hand says:

compound_stmt: if_stmt | while_stmt | for_stmt | try_stmt | with_stmt | funcdef | classdef | decorated

This accordingly leads to different definitions of funcdef and classdef. This is not necessarily 'incorrect', but for the sake of clarity, it might be better if both pages followed the same conventions.
