The current requirement to either fork (and understand forking) or edit files in the GItHub GUI makes it difficult to get newbies who have a small correction to get started. There should be a way for someone to make a near-trivial PR (such as adding an example, or even just correcting a grammar mistake) in a project's documentation without the normal overhead. The project manager can then encourage the new contributor to step up to the normal process for larger contributions.
