Welcome to the WHATWG Wiki!
You can be a part of our community, making proposals for web standards. This wiki is made available for you for drafting proposals, for writing essays, for keeping track of WHATWG spec-related issues, and so forth.
Before you begin, you may wish to read our [contribution guidelines](/wiki/WHATWG_Wiki:Contribution_Guidelines "WHATWG Wiki:Contribution Guidelines"). Once you are an autoconfirmed user, you may [create new user accounts](/wiki/WHATWG_Wiki:How_to_create_a_user_account "WHATWG Wiki:How to create a user account"), by request.
Note that although we still use the wiki for some things, much activity these days is [on GitHub](https://github.com/whatwg/), and so the wiki pages can be rather historical.
