When there are changes in a markdown file, the CI does not run, which means the PR cannot be merged without bypassing the branch protections.

@bjohansebas But CI is mostly related to node.js so why we need this or why should we run CI for markdown files changes?

Because it’s necessary for the CI to pass in order to merge. If the CI doesn’t run (since I only changed markdown files, see #6543, #6570), then I can’t merge. To merge, I would have to bypass the branch rules, which only an admin can do. Also, bypassing branch rules is something we want to avoid at all times (see expressjs/discussions#391).
