People are busy. If you want your patch considered, you should be bumping it and reaching out to people who can merge it. Man page improvements are generally a shoe-in, just get someone to pay attention to it for a few minutes and it'll get in.

It's not like this isn't a problem for GitHub, either. Pull requests go ignored, too.
