I attempted to clear my memory and revisited the page. From that POV the
link title worked for me.

Following the instructions at IssueWorkflow for submitting a patch, I
forked https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file-transfer , made the
edit, and submitted a pull request. Per those instructions I am pasting the
pull request link in an email (this email) to the mailing-list:

https://github.com/apache/cordova-plugin-file-transfer/pull/50


The instructions at IssueWorkflow say I should fork dev, not master, but
the dev branch of that plugin says that it is obsolete and master should be
used instead.

I discovered after making the pull request that should have called out
someone to review my change by picking a reviewer from the component list
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/CB#selectedTab=com.atlassian.jira.plugin.system.project%3Acomponents-panel>.
I should have pinged Max Woghiren
<https://issues.apache.org/jira/secure/IssueNavigator.jspa?reset=true&jqlQuery=project+%3D+CB+AND+resolution+%3D+Unresolved+AND+assignee+%3D+max.woghiren+ORDER+BY+priority+DESC&mode=hide>.


I made a change to the top-level index.md, but not the translations. I
don't yet know how to find documentation on the procedure for keeping
translations in sync.
