Contributions summary:Nathan made several enhancements to the Pelican static site generator, focusing primarily on pagination functionality. They implemented the ability to define pagination rules by page index, ensuring the application could handle custom pagination schemes. The user also addressed edge cases, such as when `PAGINATION_PATTERNS` were not specified, and updated the code to use `six.u` for Python 2/3 compatibility. Further, they updated the code to use a new formatting context dictionary.
