Uhh ... I'm now seeing a lot of pull requests that are not marked as
accepted and merged, but have comments indicating they were, like
https://github.com/signalapp/Signal-Android/pull/9090 which says
"thanks for merging" but github does not report it as merged.  So,
please take a screenshot and visit the contributor in person to
compare, since it's incredibly hard for me to.  There are a _lot_ of
PR's with this attribute right now.
