> In [ARROW-15006|https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/ARROW-15006] we are adding additional validation checks which are run during CI but the [Python development documentation|https://arrow.apache.org/docs/developers/python.html] doesn't contain any instructions for running those checks locally. Adding instructions would likely save everyone time.
> However, we actually have two separate ways to run the numpydoc checks locally:
> - archery lint --numpydoc (runs all checks)
> - archery numpydoc (runs all checks except except four we've disabled by default)
> And these two methods differ from how CI runs numpydoc which only runs the three checks (PR01, PR03, and PR10) we know currently pass.
> My thoughts so far are:
> - Having two similar but different ways of running numpydoc might be confusing
> - Ideally, new work should pass all numpydoc checks, not just those we run in CI. Otherwise we're just making future work for ourselves.
> - Giving developers an easy way to run just the checks we have enabled in CI would be good
