[moderation] How to properly enable content reporting in a repository

Question

Body

Hello, I'd like to know how one correctly enables content reporting on the repository level. I have followed [1] and allowed content reporting to "All users" just to test the setting. I created a test organization and a test repository (including a PR) for this purpose [2] . I also followed your documentation on how to report content (more specifically how to report a comment) [3], but the "Report content" link always takes the reporter to the GitHub support form instead of giving me the choice of reporting it to repository admins as described in [3]:

3. You may see options to Report to repository admins or Report abuse to GitHub Support.

I'm therefore curious what setting I'm missing in my test repository to fully leverage this GitHub functionality and allow users to report misconduct to the org/repository/community maintainers via the GitHub platform itself without the need to involve GitHub as the arbitration entity for everything.
