~~GitHub wiki's are clonable. Clone it, edit and submit a pull request~~.

~~Hi,~~

~~You can't edit it directly. You have to clone it locally to your computer, make your changes and then submit a pull request.~~

~~It's not hard but it is odd and different if you've never done this kind of thing before.~~

It can be edited directly now

Wikis have pull requests? How do I open one?

~~You clone like any other repository. The link is in the wiki sidebar.~~

Yeah I know about cloning but how do I create a branch for the change and open a PR for it?

Yikes! Looks like you can't send PR's to wiki in GitHub. That's a surprise. I'll open up the wiki so others can edit.

OK, it's open to everyone now.

Yep, that's the simplest.

I've also seen a setup where the main wiki repo has a "sister" repo (full-fledged) where PRs are accepted and then synced back to the wiki. TypeScript team uses that:

• the wiki https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript.wiki.git
• its sister repo https://github.com/Microsoft/TypeScript-wiki.git – accepting PRs

I think it's weird that GitHub allows you clone it but not generate pull requests. After all, it's a repository
