Overview
All content updates in Drupal follow a review and approval process. This helps ensure accuracy, consistency, and accessibility across university websites.
Saving Your Changes
After making edits to a page:
- Enter a brief description in the Revision log message field.
- Select the appropriate moderation state.
- Click Save.
The revision log should clearly describe what you changed. This helps reviewers understand your updates.
Moderation States
When saving a page, you will choose a moderation state.
Needs Review
Use Needs Review when your edits are complete and ready for approval.
This tells the Web Team that your updates are finished and can be reviewed for publishing.
Needs Work
Use Needs Work if:
- Your edits are not complete.
- You plan to return later.
- The page is not ready for review.
Approval Process
All content must be reviewed before it is published.
After submitting your page:
- The Web Team (or designated reviewer) will review your changes.
- You may receive feedback or requested updates.
- Once approved, the content will be published.
Tips for Faster Approval
- Follow formatting and accessibility guidelines.
- Use clear and concise content.
- Test links before submitting.
- Include a helpful revision log message.
Common Issues That Delay Approval
- Missing or unclear revision notes.
- Formatting or accessibility issues.
- Broken or incorrect links.
- Incomplete content.
When to Request Help Instead
If your changes involve:
- Structural or layout updates.
- Complex formatting.
- New pages or major revisions.
Submit a request through the Request Support page instead of saving the page for review.
