There's a bit of uninterpreted RST markup: 3.6.. _tut-using: at the top of the second section of the tutorial (https://docs.python.org/3.6/tutorial/interpreter.html) in the documentation for 3.6 only.

This line had formerly just said: .. _tut-using: My best guess is that this was just an accident. I can't find a precedent or meaning for the changed notation, and there were no similar changes to any other files, either. I've included a patch for this line.
