Describe the issue linked to the documentation

The link for creating a blank issue would only redirect to the choosing page. As issue forms are implemented, currently no blank issues can be created.

Suggest a potential alternative/fix

Enable blank issue creation or remove the invalid option.

@glemaitre Still not working on my devices, including GitHub app on Android. Perhaps because you have edit access?

It does say in the official doc that people can create blank issues "if you set blank_issues_enabled to true."

@thomasjpfan @rth @adrinjalali I don't recall the gitter discussion about a blank issue.

I think that this is not a bad thing that users cannot create a blank issue and only people from the project can.
We should make sure that the template is enough flexible and does not require too much unnecessary information.

I would be happier if maintainers and users have access to the same set of issue templates (+blank). I don't see why we would prevent users from using the blank template. If users keep opening black issues, it means the templates are either not working or there's a missing type we should add.

I think we should configure blank_issues_enabled: true so that the "Blank issue" link actually works for non-admin users.
