Given X of length 1000, the plot with markevery=25 should mark 1000/25 = 40 points, but there are 20 of them on the figure, so it seems a bug to me. (If so, it matters also to the next example, in "Scales & projections").

The actual code appears to use markevery=500:

cheatsheets/scripts/sine.py

Lines 26 to 36 in 05fbbb9

    
           (fig, ax) = plt.subplots(figsize=(5.7/2.54, 1.0/2.54)) 
        
           ax.plot(X, Y, "C1o:", markevery=500, mec="1.0") 
        
           ax.set_ylim(-1.5, 1.5) 
        
           fig.savefig("../figures/sine-marker.pdf") 
        
           fig, ax = plt.subplots(figsize=(5.7/2.54, 1.0/2.54)) 
        
           ax.set_xscale("log") 
        
           ax.plot(X, Y, "-") 
        
           ax.plot(X, Y, "C1o-", markevery=500, mec="1.0") 
        
           ax.set_ylim(-1.5, 1.5) 
        
           fig.savefig("../figures/sine-logscale.pdf")

Are you interested in putting a PR to fix this?
