Justin,

I've changed just that wiki to allow edits from any GitHub user. So you'll have 
to be logged in to GitHub to edit, but that should fix the issue.

Ah, good catch, that's definitely a problem - when I first created that wiki 
page a few years ago, basically all of the instructors had push access to the 
repo that it was in originally. Now it's a bit trickier.  

Greg, Jonah, template repo maintainers, et al. - is there somewhere else that 
we can logically put this page so that everyone can have read/write access to 
it? I think it's important that the page shouldn't require a PR to add to it - 
making an instructor fork, clone, edit, and PR during a workshop just to add a 
quick line about something you found seems unrealistic.
