This way, we can link to a file or we can embed the file on a website; sure, the comments in an issue thread can be linked, but it's not as 'tangible'.\r\n\r\nI realize that it's probably a lot of work to approve hundreds of pull requests...which is probably why we switched to comments.\r\n\r\nThat being said, I think managing your profile should be as easy as editing a comment.  Making a pull request is not very convenient for the student or the administrators.\r\n\r\nI propose we develop a way to make a `{student-name}.md` file from each comment in the Student Profiles thread.  And, when someone updates their comment, their file is updated, accordingly.\r\n\r\nWhat do you guys think?"},"comment":{"url":"https://api.github.com/repos/open-source-society/computer-science/issues/comments/146388975","html_url":"https://github.com/open-source-society/computer-science/issues/81#issuecomment-146388975","issue_url":"https://api.github.com/repos/open-source-society/computer-science/issues/81","id":146388975,"user":{"login":"ericdouglas","id":4119931,"avatar_url":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/4119931?v=3","gravatar_id":"","url":"https://api.github.com/users/ericdouglas","html_url":"https://github.com/ericdouglas","followers_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ericdouglas/followers","following_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ericdouglas/following{/other_user}","gists_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ericdouglas/gists{/gist_id}","starred_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ericdouglas/starred{/owner}{/repo}","subscriptions_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ericdouglas/subscriptions","organizations_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ericdouglas/orgs","repos_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ericdouglas/repos","events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ericdouglas/events{/privacy}","received_events_url":"https://api.github.com/users/ericdouglas/received_events","type":"User","site_admin":false},"created_at":"2015-10-08T01:31:16Z","updated_at":"2015-10-08T01:31:16Z","body":"@oscar-g I made this test...
