[REST] avatar_url examples are misleading

What part(s) of the article would you like to see updated?

The example responses have things like:

  {
    "url": "https://api.github.com/repos/octocat/Hello-World/statuses/6dcb09b5b57875f334f61aebed695e2e4193db5e",
    "avatar_url": "https://github.com/images/error/hubot_happy.gif",
    "id": 1,
    "node_id": "MDY6U3RhdHVzMQ==",
    "state": "success",
    "description": "Build has completed successfully",
    "target_url": "https://ci.example.com/1000/output",
    "context": "continuous-integration/jenkins",
    "created_at": "2012-07-20T01:19:13Z",
    "updated_at": "2012-07-20T01:19:13Z",
    "creator": {
      "login": "octocat",
      "id": 1,
      "node_id": "MDQ6VXNlcjE=",
      "avatar_url": "https://github.com/images/error/octocat_happy.gif",

Note that both avatar_urls are 404:

• https://github.com/images/error/hubot_happy.gif
• https://github.com/images/error/octocat_happy.gif

This doesn't seem to match the real world, and since I'm looking for the word error, it's really confusing/misleading.

Checking https://api.github.com/users/octocat, it appears it's more likely that it should be something like:

{
  "login": "octocat",
  "id": 583231,
  "node_id": "MDQ6VXNlcjU4MzIzMQ==",
  "avatar_url": "https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/583231?v=4",

I can't tell if that's the avatar_url I should see in both places or if they're very different things.

Additional information

I'm trying to get information on error, failure, pending, or success, so I'm looking for those in the output of responses...

Note that the use of a lot of "id": 1, for things that might be different is very counter-productive.

It'd be really nice if the sample output covered each of the status states instead of just one.

Hey team, happy to pick it up. 😄

[jsoref]

fwiw, REST content can't be fixed by externals

[codewithdev]

@jsoref Did you ran your spell-checker for GitHub Docs as well? like others? 😁

[jsoref]

Yes. And most of my fixes are merged.

Thank you for opening this issue! Changes to the REST API schema can be requested in github/rest-api-description. I will transfer your issue over to that open source repo.
