This manual is not for Emacs developers, it is for Lisp programmers.
Therefore, the last sentence should be removed.

The first line of a NEWS entry should be a complete sentence, and end
with a period.

> +(defun char-uppercase-p (char)
> +  "Return non-nil if CHAR is an upper-case unicode character.

Just "upper-case character", no need to say "Unicode".
