In general I think these contributions are worth it. However (left a github comment as well) none of the commit messages adhere to the coding standards, only the Pull requests titles do. So I'd suggest you change that: if it cannot be merged as-is, it's more than twice the work for the maintainer. And that's likely the main reason these aren't merged: lack of time. Also perhaps create one single commit where you fix typos instead of x commits where only one word changes.

I'm editing directly on GitHub and it doesn't seem to have that ability.
Ah that's too bad. Might be less work to work locally from a fork then push.

I don't think anybody is going to look at them as long as they are failing the tests.
