Description

The documentation pages have a link to directly propose changes via GitHub without having to figure out which repository and file generate the docs you see. For instance at https://openrefine.org/docs it looks like this:

It would be nice to have the same sort of functionality for pages of the website which are not part of the docs, such as https://openrefine.org/extensions

Research direction

Start by comparing the source for the documentation pages at openrefine.org/docs with the non-documentation page at openrefine.org/extensions, focusing on how the existing GitHub edit link is generated. Identify the website entry point responsible for page links and add equivalent source-edit behavior for pages outside the docs; done means those pages expose a working GitHub edit link like the documentation pages.
