Modify Channel Information says "Query parameters" example post says JSON blob https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/api/reference#modify-channel-information
The example calls uses JSON, but the documentation talks about Query String/URL encoded form.
Docs should cover both possibilities and examples should cover both methods

Complete Response Codes in Twitch Docs It would be great if we could have a list of the status codes and their reasons so we can write code to prepare for handling those errors, instead of logging them and dealing with them as they happen - for all endpoints. These exist, for the most part, in a lot of the newer endpoint documentation, but a lot of the older endpoints were rushed in their documentation and we have little information on what responses to expect.

Non-Extensions PubSub topics also are supported. https://dev.twitch.tv/docs/extensions/reference#helper-viewer
states for the "twitch.ext.listen" function/callback
Non-Extensions PubSub topics also are supported.
This is no longer true as every non extension pubsub topic requires an Authentication token, and the listen function doesn't provide a way to specify a token.
Or the documentation is unclear on how/which non extension pubsub topics are supported

Fixed position or better visibility for important announcements As per a request from Barry, it would helpful if any flagged messages on a page were fixed or visible when loading a bookmarked section.
