While we can generate documentation pages without the templates, the name on that page doesn't match the link. I think we should add this to the docs (or make a helper module that others can import, or both) so this is a bit easier to find. Let's continue this discussion in #3361.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,538092307 https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/3625#issuecomment-616872964,https://api.github.com/repos/pydata/xarray/issues/3625,616872964,MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDYxNjg3Mjk2NA==,14808389,2020-04-21T00:04:10Z,2020-04-21T00:04:10Z,MEMBER,"actually, we don't even need the templates. The issue is that `property` refuses to work correctly when called using the class (so `ds.plot.scatter` works but `Dataset.plot.scatter` raises an `AttributeError`). This means that as soon as we use a custom descriptor, documenting methods like `Dataset.plot.scatter` or `Dataset.str.endswith` should just work.","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,538092307 https://github.com/pydata/xarray/issues/3625#issuecomment-616098910,https://api.github.com/repos/pydata/xarray/issues/3625,616098910,MDEyOklzc3VlQ29tbWVudDYxNjA5ODkxMA==,14808389,2020-04-19T10:34:52Z,2020-04-19T10:35:19Z,MEMBER,"this kind of looks like it is related to or a duplicate of #3361. I think `pandas` uses a system of [autosummary templates](https://github.com/pandas-dev/pandas/tree/master/doc/_templates/autosummary) for this. Maybe we can use something similar?","{""total_count"": 0, ""+1"": 0, ""-1"": 0, ""laugh"": 0, ""hooray"": 0, ""confused"": 0, ""heart"": 0, ""rocket"": 0, ""eyes"": 0}",,538092307
