'Cookbook' page

Would there be interest in adding a 'cookbook' section to the docs a-la Pandas? The current Recipes section might then be better renamed as Gallery?

It's useful for the kind of thing which isn't a full-fledged example, but might be useful nonetheless. I'll hapily put together a pull-request if there's interest.

Sure, this seems like it could make for a nice addition to the docs!

Yes I agree that "Gallery" should be more a collection of plots than something else. The Parsing rasterio’s geocoordinates is something "in between": the actual message is how to parse the coordinates and would be better placed in a cookbook, while the plot is a nice side product and is well placed in the gallery...

The current Example section is a bit disorganized. Maybe the Cookbook could replace it, and the Gallery could become an independent section?

We will be focusing on this at the SciPy sprint.

I was wondering if this is still going to be a thing?

I see a branch #1791 but it hasn't been merged. Plus I'm not sure what's the scope of the cookbook.

the work done in the scipy sprints is on master now, with plans for new additions in #3564.
