Hm?  It reads OK to me the way I sent it out:

Linux Memory Management Documentation¶

This is a guide to understanding the memory management subsystem of
Linux. If you are looking for advice on simply allocating memory,
see the Memory Allocation Guide. For controlling and tuning guides,
see the admin guide.

[... list ...]

This is a collection of documents about the Linux memory management
(mm) subsystem internals with different level of details ranging from
notes and mailing list responses for elaborating descriptions of data
structures and algorithms.

[... another list ...]
