Can this be enforced also on GitHub?

The documentation on Github is just awful, generally.

Pretty clear maintainer are devs, with zero tech writing background (which is fine, in business devs rely on tech writers).

My favorite is how many repos barely describe what something does.

"Update" could technically be imperative. 🙃
