Recently I noticed that .NET Documentation has links back to the source on GitHub, which I had wanted for a long time and is very useful:

I do not know by what mechanism these links are provided, but if possible, it would be great if MS.VS.Threading's documentation also pointed back to the source, since it is open source on GitHub.

    Thanks for the feedback. We've identified some possible reasons why this link is missing, and hope to resolve them. I can't predict when it will happen though.

    We're hoping that https://github.com/MicrosoftDocs/visualstudio-docs-dotnet-api-pr/pull/239 eventually delivers on this.
