Lots of new modders don't see the class descriptions. It doesn't matter too much for most classes, but for things like LuaItemStack it's quite important to read. It should really be at the very top of the page, so that you see it immediately. At the moment its under the summary of functions/variables, which is really arbitrary and hidden.
For clarification, I mean this part:
I'd do it myself with source access, but i'm not comfortable with python (which is used to generate the docs).
thx

I agree with this, it's really easy to overlook in it's current position.

Oxyd changed this for the next version:

I don't like that its below the "class LuaItemStack - sort" text. Can that get changed real quick or should I make another interface request?

I had the same initial reaction, however moving it above that would cause problems on pages with multiple classes, such as the concepts page. To illustrate, the description would above the class, so the gameviewsettings description would be where the green line is in this case:

I think it would be better to have the description above the "sort" button on the class pages, and keep the concepts page as it is now. You can still read the description of the concepts if you click on the link to the concept.

Changed for the next version:

Perfect, I really appreciate this.
