A user account is required in order to edit this wiki, but we've had to disable public user registrations due to spam.
To request an account, ping an autoconfirmed user on IRC (such as one of these permanent autoconfirmed members) or send an e-mail to admin@wiki.whatwg.org with your desired username and an explanation of the first edit you'd like to make. (Do not use this e-mail address for any other inquiries, as they will be ignored or politely declined.)
Note: This wiki is used to supplement, not replace, specification discussions. If you would like to request changes to existing specifications, please use IRC or a mailing list first.
GitHub
Most WHATWG standards are hosted on GitHub.
Makefile
To run the standard's Makefile (i.e. to run "make" in your terminal) you need to have whatwg/xref in the same parent directory as the repository of your standard (e.g. whatwg/dom). In addition you need to have installed Anolis (ms2ger/anolis).
"forked from"
Although some repositories are marked as "forked from" by GitHub, they are now the "authoritative" copies (indeed, also per their original owner).
