ARTICLE PRODUCTION · Workflow idea

Give your editors a useful first draft, not an article that publishes itself.

Start with a topic, intended reader, and agreed writing direction. Prepare an article outline, draft copy, suggested visuals, and relevant internal reading links, then keep all materials together in an unpublished state for an editor to verify before release.

01 / The starting point

A clear request.
A useful direction.

A subject, intended reader, and writing guidance approved by the content owner

“Prepare a structured article draft and supporting materials, keep it unpublished, and require an editor to approve facts, rights, links, and final copy.”
An example request · Make it specific to your team.

02 / The work

5 tasks.
One useful outcome.

Helps content teams move from a topic brief to an organized draft while leaving editorial judgment and publication with people.

  1. Choose a topic and intended reader

    Provide the purpose, audience, key questions, and supporting information the article should address.

  2. Prepare an outline and first draft

    Organize the requested points into a readable structure and distinguish sourced facts from suggestions.

  3. Gather proposed visuals and related reading

    Add possible images and relevant internal links while keeping their source and intended use visible.

  4. Review accuracy, originality, and fit

    Have an editor verify factual claims, quotations, source permissions, links, and consistency with the organization’s standards.

  5. Approve the final article before release

    Keep the article unpublished until an authorized editor approves exact copy, visuals, destination, and timing.

03 / The result

Something useful.
Something to build on.

An unpublished article package with draft text, proposed visuals, and links ready for editorial review.

The handoff

An unpublished article package with draft text, proposed visuals, and links ready for editorial review.

Keep in mind

Drafted articles may invent facts, repeat protected material, include unsuitable images, or link to irrelevant pages. Check sources and rights, protect confidential briefs, and have an editor approve the complete article, visuals, links, audience, and timing before publication.

04 / Make it yours

Set the brief.
Set the standard.

A few choices shape the work around your team.

Define article briefs and content standards

Choose useful brief fields such as audience, topic, length, tone, and sources that support factual claims.

Set visual and linking expectations

Identify approved image sources and how editors should check that suggested links are relevant and current.

Keep drafts private and unpublished

Choose a restricted review location and identify the editor responsible for publication approval.

Test well-sourced and incomplete briefs

Review strong, thin, and sensitive topics to ensure unsupported statements stay visible and no draft is published without approval.
