Conversation
Since you cannot actually push changes to your wiki if you use https, the clone command should not instruct you to use https when cloning.

Hi @FredrIQ, and thanks for your submission
Did you suggest editing the right page? It looks like you may have meant to suggest edits to https://docs.github.com/en/communities/documenting-your-project-with-wikis/adding-or-editing-wiki-pages?
Additionally, I've just tested and I'm able to push changes to a wiki using HTTPS, so I'm not sure the docs are incorrect here. Is it possible something else has happened with your configuration? If so, this wouldn't be the best place to get support, but I'm happy to leave this open for now in case there is in fact a problem with the docs I'm not seeing
