Suggested change
If one is implementing a script or is executing the Python interpreter
from a command line interface, one may opt for ``plt.savefig('$filename')``
in lieu of the ``$object.plot()`` functions found in this tutorial.
``plt.savefig()`` saves the pandas object as an image and accepts a variety
of filetypes, including png, pdf, jpg, and svg.

This isn't quite right, there's a button to press to suggest changes, check the article I linked (step 6)

IMO I don't think this note is entirely necessary. Since the rest of the documentation mentions using the matplotlib API, I think further matplotlib actions can be independently looked-up by the user.

This section demonstrates visualization through charting. For information on
visualization of tabular data please see the section on `Table Visualization <style.ipynb>`_.
