Good idea!

> +Most provided modules use prefixes based on their origin:
> +
> +@itemize @bullet
> +@item @code{ice-9} includes guile-specific modules: the standard library of Guile. @xref{Status, History of ice-9, History of ice-9}

s/guile/Guile/

Also: please leave two spaces after an end-of-sentence period and add a
semicolon at the end of the line.

> +@item @code{rnrs} and @code{scheme} include modules from the RnRS standard (@url{https://standards.scheme.org/}). @xref{R7RS Support} and @xref{R6RS Support}

s/RnRS standard/Scheme standards/

Likewise, semicolon at the end of the line

> +@item @code{srfi} includes Scheme Requests For Implementation; SRFI’s (@url{https://srfi.schemers.org/}). @xref{SRFI Support}

Rather:

  … includes @uref{https://srfi.schemers.org/, Scheme Requests for
  Implementation or ``SRFIs''} (@pxref{SRFI Support});

> +@item Some larger features have their own prefix. These include @code{web} (@pxref{Web}), @code{oop} (@xref{GOOPS}), @code{sxml} (@pxref{SXML}), and @code{language} (@pxref{Other Languages}).

s/@xref{GOOPS}/@pxref{GOOPS}/ (since it’s in parentheses)

Fine with me with these changes!

Ludo’.
