The handoff

Destination-ready article drafts with their source link and review status, ready for an editor to approve and publish individually.

Keep in mind

Review each destination version for formatting, attribution, links, rights, and publication settings. A source article should not be republished or made public elsewhere until an editor approves that specific release.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Choose source and destination outlets

Document any changes needed for titles, canonical links, images, tags, attribution, and presentation on each outlet.

Assign editorial and rights review

Name who checks content, rights, attribution, and the final destination version before publication.

Keep publication states visible

Choose where draft, review, approval, and published status are recorded for every destination.
