All articles currently in the drafting process.

Drafts are often created to work on future articles before they are ready to be published. These are located in either the "Draft" namespace or a user sandbox to avoid any possibility that a casual reader may stumble upon them; those areas are also excluded from search engine indexing. {{Draft article}} goes further, prominently tagging the draft article as a draft, and at the same time provides convenient links to help build the article and facilitate submission via the articles for creation process. This also categorizes the page to Category:Drafts or one of its sub-categories.
