Creates the following (with last three processparameters set to "no"):

Categorization

The following feature was added by Adam Cuerden and JPxG in November 2022.

All articles with this template are added to Category:Signpost drafts. Subcategories are added based on the following parameter values:

Subcategorization works like this:

Ready-for-copyedit	Copyedit-done	Final-approval	Category
(any)	(any)	(any)	Signpost drafts
(any)	(any)	old	Signpost drafts, inactive
no	no	no	Signpost drafts, not ready for copyedit
yes	no	no	Signpost drafts, ready for copyedit
yes	yes	no	Signpost drafts, ready for final check
yes	yes	yes	Signpost drafts, ready for publication

Extra parameters

The following feature is only intended for writers to keep a personal record of their own submissions, and is not part of the publishing process.

On user pages, for those who like to keep a personal record of their own submissions, two extra parameters are supported. Technically they work in other namespaces too, but are unlikely to be of any use there.

• |status= – Set to accepted, declined, published, rejected, submitted.
• |location= – The final location in which the draft has been published. For example, |location=2019-03-31/In focus will link to Wikipedia:Wikipedia Signpost/2019-03-31/In focus.

Setting |status= to accepted, declined, published, and rejected will suppress the checklist, newsroom links and deadlines from displaying.

For example

{{Signpost draft
 |title              = Title of the piece
 |blurb              = Short description of the piece
 |Ready-for-copyedit = yes / no
 |Copyedit-done      = yes / no
 |Final-approval     = yes / no / old <!--This parameter should only be used by EiC -->
 |status             = Published
 |location           = 2019-03-31/Humour
}}
