In https://docs.python.org/3.5/reference/import.html#importsystem, section "5.2 Packages", second sentence, the word "naming" is broken across two lines.

In 3.7.5rc1 as well. Didn't check any others.

I'm not seeing this in either the master or 3.5 branches. Perhaps this is being done locally by your browser?

Unfortunately I can't find a way for github to link to a specific line in a .rst file, but when I look at the source code and https://github.com/python/cpython/blob/3.5/Doc/reference/import.rst, I don't see any line breaks.

Yeah, that's weird. Looks like this may be a Chrome bug. I'm seeing it in Chrome (Version 77.0.3865.90 (Official Build) (64-bit)), but not Safari. This is on MacOS (High Sierra).

In the attached screenshot, I narrowed the window a bit. In the second paragraph, it's mis-broken "modules" and "contain", but hyphenated some other line breaks. If I diddle with the CSS and disable "hyphens: auto", it stops breaking words completely (which is probably better than breaking them wrong).

I guess close this and I'll open a bug against Chrome.
