<h2>Who to ask for wide review?</h2>

<p>The objective is to ensure that the entire set of stakeholders of the Web
community, including the general public, have had adequate notice of the
progress of the Working Group and were genuinely able to perform reviews of and
provide comments on the specification. When considering <a
href='https://www.w3.org/Guide/transitions'>requests to advance the maturity
level of document</a>, the Director will consider who has been explicitly
offered a reasonable opportunity to review the document.</p>

<p>In order to include other stakeholders including Web developers, technology
providers and implementers not active in the Working Group, external groups and
standards organizations working on related areas, etc. you must:</p>

<p>You must publish an updated technical report, with the Status of the Document
indicating clearly that you're looking for <em>wide review</em>, before inviting
review from other stakeholders. Our <a
href='https://github.com/w3c/transition-notifier/blob/main/notify.js'>tooling</a>
monitors publications and propagates notifications to <a
href="mailto:public-review-announce@w3.org">public-review-announce@w3.org</a>
automatically (for example, <a
href='https://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-review-announce/2021Jun/0008.html'>Candidate
Recommendation Snapshot: Payment Request API (Call for Wide Review)</a>).</p>

<p>You should then reach out to:</p>

dependencies.</li>
<li>the groups jointly responsible for a particular document (if any).</li>
<li>the <a href="#how_to_get_horizontal_review">horizontal groups</a>. If it
appears that one of those is not relevant (even if not listed in your charter),
talk to them informally to confirm that. <em>Note that sending an email to the
public-review-announce list alone is not sufficient to trigger horizontal
reviews. You will still need to formally request review from the Horizontal
Groups, as described below</em></li>
<li>the general public, including Web developers, technology providers and

if needed (in case the default notice sent to that list is

<p><strong>Tip:</strong> consider tracking your wide review progress using a
GitHub issue, such as <a href="https://github.com/w3c/sensors/issues/299">issue
#299 of th Sensors API</a>. You can then simply point the Director to the issue.</p>

<p>The reviews provided by the <a

groups</a>, a subset of a full wide review, do receive special attention and
much of the rest of this document focuses on how and when to conduct horizontal reviews.</p>
