Reference issue (if any)

No specific issue, but this PR addresses a TODO comment found in tutorials/intro/20_events_from_raw.py regarding missing links to supported data format tables.

What does this implement/fix?

This PR replaces the TODO text with functional cross-references to the MEG and EEG "Supported data formats" tables.

I used the :doc: role to link directly to:

  • tutorials/io/10_reading_meg_data.py
  • tutorials/io/20_reading_eeg_data.py
  • I chose :doc: because these source files do not currently have internal labels defined (which would be required for :ref:).

Additional information

I am a GSoC 2026 applicant for the Project 4: Interactive Documentation (JupyterLite) project.

Building these docs locally and troubleshooting the Sphinx cross-referencing logic gave me great insight into the current documentation workflow and why the JupyterLite initiative is so important for reducing contributor friction
I am really excited for JupyterLite to make this process even smoother for future contributors.

# (once such a table has been created).
# For a list of which EEG/MEG systems use STIM channels versus marker files
# or embedded arrays, see the "Supported data formats" tables in
# :doc:`/auto_tutorials/io/10_reading_meg_data` and :doc:`/auto_tutorials/io/20_reading_eeg_data`.

Hi Daniel,
Thank you for your feedback! I’ve addressed the TODO comment in 20_events_from_raw.py by adding functional cross-references to the MEG and EEG tutorials. I also clarified the surrounding comment to make the explanation more precise.
The changes are now pushed to my branch, and I’ve opened a pull request for review. Please let me know if there are any further improvements you’d like me to make.
Best regards,
Susaniaariya
