- I couldn't find an example with "replacing" so I assumed "stopping" was meant. - Moved "Exception:" down to where there is an exception. - Tightened up language about participle adjectives.

I wanted to do something simple for my first pull request, so please let me know how I can improve my process before I venture into open documentation issues.

Oh, we... could use some static checks for trailing spaces.

Right, this repo currently doesn't have any static checks. I'll make a note to see if I can copy anything from the docs repo.
