Pandas version checks
- [X] I have checked that the issue still exists on the latest versions of the docs on
main

Suggested fix for documentation
The problem could be the missing space after the colon. e.g. change
* value: description
to
* value : description
Then the fix would be:
* pad / ffill : propagate last valid observation forward to next valid.
* backfill / bfill : use NEXT valid observation to fill gap.
or it could be the missing single quotes around the values. e.g. change
* value: description
to
* 'value': description
Then the fix would be:
* 'pad / ffill': propagate last valid observation forward to next valid.
* 'backfill / bfill': use NEXT valid observation to fill gap.

Ah never mind 🤦🏾 the issue is already fixed on the dev version of the docs: https://pandas.pydata.org/docs/dev/reference/api/pandas.DataFrame.fillna.html would be released with pandas 2
