1. Quick Edits

Editing on GitHub is sooo much better than sending an email in the format of change x to y. It's fast, fun, and gives you credits on your GitHub stats.

1. Select "Edit" on the profile, which will take you to the GitHub markdown.
   Figure: Click "Edit" on the Profile

2. Click the Edit icon to change the profile text
   Figure: Click the pencil icon in GitHub

3. Make the changes to the profile (in markdown)
   Figure: Make any changes in the markdown

4. Commit the changes
   Figure: Tell them what you did, then click "Commit changes"

5. Open Pull Request and assign reviewers

   If you're submitting a change for someone else's profile, it's always a good idea to add them as a reviewer. This allows them to be notified of the change via email.

   Figure: Adam's profile is being edited so we'll add him as a reviewer to the pull request

6. Create Pull Request Once you've done as many changes as you want, then pass it over to the reviewers by clicking "Create pull request"
   Figure: Click "Create pull request"

7. Done! Once you see a green "Open" you just need to be patient
   The red crosses are normal, you are just waiting for the reviewers. Figure: The green "Open" means you're done! The Pull request has been sent for approval
