MDN's issue & bug tracking is done in bugzilla. Please use our bugzilla form to create issues/bugs:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.mdn
(The GitHub issues are enabled because bugzilla bugs link back to some old issues.)
Thanks,
MDN dev team

Hello Thank you very much
FYI, it might be easier to just disable issues on this repo and just note in the CONTRIBUTING.md.
Good idea @dijonkitchen. Not many people read the CONTRIBUTING.md, but it is linked in the info bar when you open an issue. It should reflect current practices.
My reading of the GitHub page on disabling issues is that disabling it will not delete the data, but will make it impossible to get to old issues. I'm reluctant to lose those conversations. I may do some research in a test repository to see what happens when you disable issues on a project that was using them.
@groovecoder The link is broken. That's what I see when opening the page:

Sorry, either the product聽Mozilla Developer Network聽does not exist or you aren't authorized to enter a bug into it.
@chaficnajjar, we recently changed the product name in Bugzilla from Mozilla Developer Network to developer.mozilla.org. This broke form.mdn, but an update has been approved and merged.
Until that is deployed, you can use the guided bug entry form:
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi?format=guided#h=dupes|developer.mozilla.org
Update: The form https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/form.mdn is working again.
We're trying ZenHub for project planning. We may start using issues if required by the new workflow, or we may be able to add the issues, milestones, etc. at https://github.com/mdn/sprints. Bugzilla, and form.mdn, is still the preferred place for bugs and feature requests.
We can prevent user from creating issue by adding an issue template pointing user to Bugzilla. I have seen other repository doing this.
Well, this seems to聽be聽no聽longer accurate, given bug聽1573928 and聽#5642.
@ExE-Boss you're right!
The bug that "marked the end of Bugzilla for kuma" was: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1573155
