What is the documentation issue?

The docs issue template in .github/ISSUE_TEMPLATE/4.docs_report.yml contains a small grammar issue in this sentence:

If you are reporting about an documentation request, please open it in our discussions instead.

an documentation request should likely be a documentation request.

The sentence might also read more naturally as something like:

If you are reporting a documentation request, please open it in our discussions instead.

Is there any context that might help us understand?

This appears in the docs issue form itself, so contributors see it before submitting documentation issues. It is a tiny fix, but it is user-facing.

Does the docs page already exist? Please link to it.
