api docs for matplotlib.artist.get and matplotlib.artist.getp are exactly the same

The api docs for matplotlib.artist.get and matplotlib.artist.getp are exactly the same

see
http://matplotlib.org/api/artist_api.html#matplotlib.artist.get
vs
http://matplotlib.org/api/artist_api.html#matplotlib.artist.getp

If both methods should be there the the get (without the 'p') should be called with get(obj) rather than getp(obj) as stated.

Technically yes, it has actually been implemented as an alias (https://github.com/matplotlib/matplotlib/blob/master/lib/matplotlib/artist.py#L1228). This does break the "one good way to do something" rule (actually, so does getp altogether, but that is another issue) - perhaps we should just remove one from the docs...

I'm going to close this issue - but feel free to submit a PR if you're inclined to update the docs, and I'll happily merge.

Cheers!
