3. Now click on the edit icon.

|
|
5. Say why you're proposing the changes, and then click on "Propose file change". 
|
|
6. Submit the [pull request](https://help.github.com/articles/using-pull-requests/)!

## Updating your Pull Request
|
|

|
Sometimes, a maintainer of an awesome list will ask you to edit your Pull Request before it is included. This is normally due to spelling errors or because your PR didn't match the awesome-* list guidelines.
