Not a huge deal, as I offer PR’s to help the site, not to get credit. However I have noticed that I’ve merged two PR’s, one into the Common Lisp track, and another into the Go track, and it doesn’t appear as if I’m showing up as a contributor. I’m wondering if my account was originally synced to the wrong Github account or something (my account has been around for a bit and I can’t remember what it was originally set up with). The Github account in my profile on Exercism is the correct one.
You are awarded some reputation points for the PRs? You can see them in your reputation list?
Or do you want to be shown in the list of contributors below the exercises? There is a JSON entry required for that in exercises/practice/<slug>/.meta/config.json with your GitHub handle for that to happen. At least for react that is not the case.
Or is there another place you hope to be shown?

They are not in my reputation list, nor do I appear as a contributor on the exercise itself, despite Exercism saying my Github account is linked under Settings > Integrations.
I think the rep might only get updated roughly once a day or something.
Exercise contributors are based on the entries in the config.json and not based on PRs.
