Stubs in Hint pages

[darren-stoll]

I’ve noticed that a number of hint pages for exercises have “This is a stub. Help the community by replying below with your hints and solutions. We can use those to create a guide article for this.”

There is no option to reply or edit the document, and I can understand that it’s to prevent a flood of unwanted edits. In that case, what should we do if we have a solution to suggest?

Hello~!

First, I’d like to thank you for your interest in contributing to FreeCodeCamp.
I took a quick look at some Guide posts and I don’t show them as being locked for replies. Would you mind providing a link to a hint page that you aren’t able to reply to?

This is one page that I found where it said it was a stub, but I couldn’t edit or reply to the topic. It didn’t explicitly get marked as locked, so I’m not sure what I’m missing.
