 * Add new function to calculate the average photon energy,
-  :py:func:`pvlib.spectrum.average_photon_energy`.
+  :py:func:`~pvlib.spectrum.average_photon_energy`.
   (:issue:`2135`, :pull:`2140`)
 * Add new losses function that accounts for non-uniform irradiance on bifacial

+  :py:func:`~pvlib.spectrum.spectral_factor_firstsolar`.
   (:issue:`2086`, :pull:`2100`)
 * Add ``roll_utc_offset`` and ``coerce_year`` arguments to
-  :py:func:`pvlib.iotools.get_pvgis_tmy` to allow user to specify time zone,
+  :py:func:`~pvlib.iotools.get_pvgis_tmy` to allow user to specify time zone,
   rotate indices of TMY to begin at midnight, and force indices to desired
   year. (:issue:`2139`, :pull:`2138`)
 * Restructured the pvlib/spectrum folder by breaking up the contents of
   pvlib/spectrum/mismatch.py into pvlib/spectrum/mismatch.py,
   pvlib/spectrum/irradiance.py, and
   pvlib/spectrum/response.py. (:issue:`2125`, :pull:`2136`, :pull:`2151`)
 * Added function for calculating wind speed at different heights,
-  :py:func:`pvlib.atmosphere.windspeed_powerlaw`.
+  :py:func:`~pvlib.atmosphere.windspeed_powerlaw`.
   (:issue:`2118`, :pull:`2124`)
 * ``delta_t`` can now be specified with an array in the SPA functions.
   The numba implementation now also allows calculation of ``delta_t``
   internally.  (:issue:`2189`, :pull:`2190`)
 * The multithreaded SPA functions no longer emit a warning when calculating
   solar positions for short time series. (:pull:`2170`)
-* Implemented closed-form solution for alpha in :py:func:`pvlib.clearsky.detect_clearsky`, 
-  obviating the call to scipy.optimize that was prone to runtime errors and minimizing
