Unless you are opening a pull request which will only make small corrections, for instance, to correct a typo, you are more likely to get traction for your changes if you [open an issue](https://github.com/raspberrypi/documentation/issues) first to discuss the proposed changes. Issues and Pull Requests older than 60 days will [automatically be marked as stale](https://github.com/actions/stale) and then closed 7 days later if there still hasn't been any further activity.
