 The WHATWG's approach to "documenting reality" is ideal for nailing down [fundamental parts of the platform](https://spec.whatwg.org/) and improving interoperability and developer satisfaction. It can sometimes be daunting for new [Contributors](./IPR%20Policy.md#contributor), who don't know how to reliably get implementer feedback or editor time commitment. The WHATWG Stages process is an optional, opt-in process that both new and established [Contributors](./IPR%20Policy.md#contributor) can use if they want to get more formal signals on support for their [Contribution](./IPR%20Policy.md#21-contribution). This tool is generally used for medium-to-large [Contributions](./IPR%20Policy.md#21-contribution); it's not expected to be used for each [Contribution](./IPR%20Policy.md#21-contribution).
