Github is very rude! I do not mean the people but github.com. Picture the scene: you spend an age writing an article and are filled with pride and goodness about helping kids & adults learn. When I review and start to edit it, rejected or changes requested appears!
Perhaps this works fine in some areas but I know there is an emotional attachment when writing learning resources.
So please, do please translate these message from robot into Human.
