Hello everybody,
here my 2 cents:

From my experience, this works pretty well: Click on the "edit" button
on the web site, get asked for github credentials, get dumped into the
github editor for the page (as far as I remember GH even automatically
forks the repository if you don't have a fork already), and if you save
the file a PR is generated.
If someone wnats to see an example in action, I've set up a system like
this (based on Github Pages, with markdown as documentation format
because that is what GH pages/Jekyll uses) at http://cfw.ftcommunity.de.

If you want to use the GH editor, I'd go with markdown. For markdown,
the GH web editor has syntax highlighting and and (more important) a
usable preview mode, for RST all you get is a very simple plain text editor.
best regards,
Richard
