Made logging config examples more accessible.

- Show an initial example configuring the root logger to output to the console.
- Then add more logging from the `django` named logger.
- Then show the file and more complex examples.

Adjusted surrounding text for reading flow.

 However, to give you a taste of what is possible, here are several examples.
 
-First, here's a configuration which writes all logging from the

-Second, here's an example of how to make the logging system print Django's
-logging to the console. It may be useful during local development.
+This configures the parent ``root`` logger to send messages with the
+``WARNING`` level and higher to the console handler. By adjusting the level to
+``INFO`` or ``DEBUG`` you can display more messages. This may be useful during
+development.
 
-By default, this config only sends messages of level ``INFO`` or higher to the
-console (same as Django's default logging config, except that the default only
-displays log records when ``DEBUG=True``). Django does not log many such
-messages. With this config, however, you can also set the environment variable
-``DJANGO_LOG_LEVEL=DEBUG`` to see all of Django's debug logging which is very
-verbose as it includes all database queries:
