What article on docs.github.com is affected?
https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/dependabot/dependabot-version-updates/configuration-options-for-the-dependabot.yml-file#open-pull-requests-limit
https://docs.github.com/en/code-security/dependabot/working-with-dependabot/troubleshooting-dependabot-errors#dependabot-cannot-open-any-more-pull-requests
What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?
The articles state that there is an internal limit of ten open pull requests for dependabot security updates.
I have seen repositories with greater than ten open dependabot security update pull requests so would like the articles updated to whatever the correct internal limit is.

@CloudPlatformer Thanks again for this issue and thank you for your patience as we researched it. ✨
After speaking with the team, we have decided to handle this update internally. Basically, the default limit for security update pull requests is usually ten but it can be more as it depends on each combination of repository, ecosystem, and directory.
Most of our team is out for the holiday break, so we will address this internally after the start of the new year. I'll go ahead and close this issue out, as I've copied it to our internal board. 💖
