Code of Conduct

What article on docs.github.com is affected?

GitHub's SSH key fingerprints: https://docs.github.com/en/authentication/keeping-your-account-and-data-secure/githubs-ssh-key-fingerprints

What changes are you suggesting?

Just like one can easily see and verify GitHub's SSH key fingerprints in the docs, they should be able to verify GitHub's GPG key fingerprint.

The fingerprint is mentioned in some random places, like in a discussion from Sep. 2024 about key expiration, but not in any official page that I could find.

Notice that the problem is not that I can't find the fingerprint, but that it is not easy/obvious as the SSH key fingerprints.

Additional information

There's no existing issue about this. The closest one points to a non-existent Discussions thread and only mentions the web-flow.gpg.
