We don't accept PRs via GitHub ... yet. Soon. Currently you need to use Gerrit, but wait maybe a week and we should accept PRs.

@bradfitz, those links in the article point to sources which were deleted in this commit:

   cmd/fix: delete pre-Go 1 fixes

    Assume people who were going to update to Go 1 have done so.
    Those with pre-Go 1 trees remaining will need to update first
    to Go 1.0 (using its 'go fix') and then to Go 1.1.

Does it makes sense to point to different but actual examples in the repo?

Why don't you just change the links to point to source browser URLs linking into old branches?

Change https://golang.org/cl/94235 mentions this issue: blog: fix code.google.com links
