The draft namespace can be used as a place to create and develop new articles until they are ready to enter mainspace. Any editor is free to make a draft. However, editors below (TBD) edits are not allowed to create new pages in main space and must create their articles via the draft system.

Guidelines

Creating drafts

  • Drafts that haven't been edited for (timeframe TBD) can be marked for deletion. The draft's author should be notified of this.
  • If a draft is deleted an author can request an admin to restore it at any time should they wish to resume working on it.

Publishing to mainspace

  • When you think your article is ready to moe to mainspace, inexperienced editors should not do so themselves, Instead, they should place {{request to publish}}. Another editor can then review your article and decide if its ready to move to mainspace. This step is optional for autoconfirmed editors.
  • When publishing, draft redirects to mainspace should be cleaned up. Such redirects can be listed for speedy deletion as uncontroversial cleanup

Draftifying articles

  • Do not draftify an existing page without reason (it's considered disruptive). Please ensure you notify someone when draftifying an article they made. You can do this using {{subst:article moved to draft space}}
  • As with publishing, redirects to draft space resulting from draftifying articles should be marked for speedy deletion as uncontroversial cleanup.
