I understand your concern, Nicholas. However, isn't it too strict? For the above example, adding a new HTML page is a user-facing change.
https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/48852 (This is a new doc) [SPARK-50309][DOCS] Document SQL Pipe Syntax https://github.com/apache/spark/pull/49098 (This is one line link addition) [SPARK-48426][DOCS][FOLLOWUP] Add `Operators` page to `sql-ref.md` Given your definition, even a word typo fix inside an HTML page becomes a user-facing change. Did I understand your definition correctly? Or, is it something else? Dongjoon.
