In the Linux guide on the wiki, the commands are like so:
$sudo pacman -Sy python39
This makes it less easy to not include the $ character when copying commands. Instead I propose that the commands be separated from the $ character by a space, like so:
$ sudo pacman -Sy python39
This is standard for any guides for Linux commands, to separate the prompt from the command, with $ being regular user, and # being root user. The prompt itself in the terminal is separated normally from the command, too.
Also please, never use pacman -Sy. Either do pacman -Syu for a full upgrade, or do pacman -S to download from the mirrors that correspond to the current state of the system.
