Research direction

Search the repository for the fork-count button and inspect how its current GitHub Network URL is assembled. Change the destination from /network to /network/members, then verify the rendered fork-count link points to the members page.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Presently, if we click on fork count, it points to github.com/user/repo/network. But to see who all have forked the repo, it should point to github.com/user/repo/network/members instead.
