EDITORIAL BRIEF TO ARTICLE · Workflow idea

Give each approved content idea a clear path to editorial review.

Use an approved brief from the team’s content planning space to prepare an article draft, proposed search details, and a review record. Keep the article private while an editor checks evidence, voice, and rights, then require explicit approval of the final text and publication destination before it goes live.

The handoff

A review-ready article and updated editorial status with the published address recorded only after an editor approves publication.

Keep in mind

An article can contain unsupported claims, outdated details, or material used without permission. Keep sources with the draft, verify facts and originality, restrict unpublished content to the editorial team, and require an editor to approve the exact article, destination, and timing before publication. Approve any external announcement and its audience separately.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Organize briefs and editorial ownership

Choose the fields for topic, audience, sources, owner, draft status, and review decisions.

Define article and research expectations

Set preferred structure, tone, length, source quality, and how uncertainty should be called out.

Keep drafts restricted to reviewers

Limit access to working articles and name who may edit, approve, and publish them.

Test review, rejection, and publication steps

Check weak sources and a declined article to ensure no content or announcement is published before approval.
