[ostream] lists non-member functions that operate on ostreams. These should be listed in [ostream.syn] instead. (Note that some of the text under the class synopsis in [ostream] will need to be moved too.)

Also check for other occurrences of this elsewhere in [input.output].

[ostream] p2 and [ostream] p4 need to be adapted. For example, p2 relates "member functions" to "formatted inserter", which is not true in general.

[istream] is also affected by the general issue.

It's pretty confusing that the non-member function templates in [ostream.inserters.character] are listed between the member functions in [ostream.inserters] and the member functions in [ostream.unformatted]. In the context of an \itemdecl it's not obvious whether something is a member function or not, because we don't qualify member functions with their class name.
