What article on docs.github.com is affected?
https://docs.github.com/en/pull-requests/how-tos/review-pull-requests/reviewing-proposed-changes-in-a-pull-request#starting-a-review
What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?
In the "Starting a review" section, the instructions for canceling a pending review are outdated.
The article currently says:
To cancel a pending review, including all of its pending comments, click Review changes, then click Abandon review.
In the current GitHub UI, the corresponding action is accessed by clicking Submit review, and then selecting Discard review.
The screenshot accompanying these instructions is also outdated and should be updated to reflect the current UI.
Why should the docs be changed?
The current instructions and screenshot no longer match the GitHub user interface. Users following the documented steps may not be able to find Review changes → Abandon review because those controls have changed in the current UI.
What is the expected outcome or behavior?
Update the instructions to reflect the current UI:
To cancel a pending review, including all of its pending comments, click Submit review, then click Discard review.
Replace the outdated screenshot with a current screenshot showing the Submit review and Discard review button.
Additional information
This update only requires changing the instructions and replacing the outdated screenshot to match the current GitHub UI.
