Additional information
I'm trying to transfer the ownership of several OAuth apps to an organization. However, the organization admins are unsure where they can approve the request. It would be great if the article makes a mention of this.
Thanks for opening this issue. A GitHub docs team member should be by to give feedback soon. In the meantime, please check out the contributing guidelines.

@derisen Thanks so much for opening an issue! I'll triage this for the team to take a look :eyes:
Thanks for opening this issue! I am going to leave it here in the open source repo for anyone to contribute to, but I do not currently have the information to document. I am also making an internal note in our backlog to research and document this.
@derisen I am interested taking this issue. I found about docs through friend.
Here are the details to document: Once you initiate the transfer, the new owner needs to navigate to their OAuth Apps page. From there, they should see the app listed under "Pending transfer requests". They need to click on the app name and then click Complete transfer.
Anyone is welcome to open a PR to address this issue. Please make sure the PR follows our style guide (you can use the current text in the "Transferring ownership of an OAuth app" article as an example.
