Broken links to generated documentation of cartopy.crs.CRS methods

[wjbenfold]

Description

Some links are broken in the cartopy documentation (and consequently in documentation linked into it, e.g. Iris)

Example: https://scitools.org.uk/cartopy/docs/latest/whatsnew/v0.7.html

As of 17/12/2021, the link to cartopy.mpl.geoaxes.GeoAxes.gridlines() works fine, but the link to cartopy.crs.CRS.transform_points() is broken. Links to cartopy.crs.CRS itself are fine.

This appears to be fixed (in my local build at least). Maybe by #2183?

Hello @rcomer, I think the cartopy.crs.CRS.transform_points() link working on the local build but not on the online published version predated # 2183. I also noticed that will working on that PR. Not sure why there is a discrepancy between the two.

While that specific link is maybe working, I would say more broadly this is not fixed. There are a lot of red links for deprecated methods, which I guess makes sense. However, some other ones that should be fixable:

• Links to v0.6 and v0.8 on the Version 0.7 page
• regrid_shape keyword on Version 0.10
• cartopy.mpl.geoaxes.GeoAxes.GeoSpine on Version 0.18 page
• xarray.DataArray and ax.annotate() on Version 0.21, etc.
  I can take a look at it.
