It seems like the all code source links in the Julia manual for the `Statistics` module have changed, none of them works. For example for the first one `Statistics.std` this [link](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/blob/e4ee485e90961018b7e53ce14b8b99335953e176/usr/share/julia/stdlib/v1.9/Statistics/src/Statistics.jl#L422-L448) does not work.

Not even [here](https://github.com/JuliaLang/julia/tree/master/stdlib) is possible to find the `Statistics` module. Where is it?

It’s been moved out to here:

PRs to fix docs are likely welcome. It will be kept around for compatibility, but I believe this is the major library going forward (it depends on it):

Thank you! I thought that was just a JuliaStats fork of such module. So it just remains to update the source links in the Julia manual.

Good catch. It’s probably worth filing an issue against Julia on GitHub. I’m not sure Documenter.jl would allow indicating that some doc pages are hosted on a different repo though. @mortenpi?

This will be fixed when we roll out Documenter 1.0 out for the Julia docs.
