I normally use HotCat to add all obviously relevant categories, in as fine a degree of detail as easily possible, to newly accepted Drafts. Sometimes this may leave the article in a higher-level category than it should be. In these cases, I welcome the assistance of those who maintain such categories
190:
It is important for newly accepted Draft articles to be added to suitable WikiProjects, so that editors with expertise or experience in the topic area can add to them or deal with any issues that may not have been obvious to the reviewer. Where I am uncertain which WikiProjects are appropriate, I try
145:
This is a side effect of the review process... the notification will be left on the talk page of whoever added a submit template to the draft most frequently, regardless of whether they created the draft or even have edited it significantly at all. You may have added a submit template while reverting
123:
If your Draft, after being declined, does not have a "Review waiting" box somewhere on it, then it is not submitted for review, regardless of whether you have improved it since it was declined or not... and regardless of whether you have asked on my talk page about it. You should add {{subst:submit}}
197:
Where formatting, grammatical, or structural issues in an article are more than trivial, I usually add a
Copyedit template to the newly created Draft. I am aware that this adds it to the Guild of Copyeditors' backlog, but the Guild seems to have an efficient approach to addressing this backlog, and

Don't worry too much about article ratings, they are merely intended to give a rough guide as an article develops. I almost never rate a newly accepted Draft better than "C", so "C" should be considered quite good, and "Start" as adequate. The presence or absence of a photograph or image does not

Many
Knowledge articles exist which do not meet the desirable standards... this is partly because new articles could be created without being reviewed, up until a few years ago. So when using an existing article as a comparison or an example to work from, it would be better to use a recognised
119:
If there is a dispute over the notability of a topic, or as to whether a Draft is unduly promotional, I usually leave it for someone else to make the next review. This helps to avoid the fate of Drafts being decided by any ignorance or unintentional bias on my part concerning a topic area.
158:
Normally for an article to be assessed against the criteria for being "B" class or better, you would ask at the talk page, or assessment requests page, of a relevant
Wikiproject. The Wikiprojects relevant to an article can be found on the talk page of the article. There is also a

to be over-inclusive. This gives the WikiProject members the chance to decide whether the newly created article is relevant to their WikiProject or not. They can also alter the quality rating and add an importance rating for their WikiProject.

I no longer check whether newly accepted Drafts are
Orphans or not. Perhaps some people are using automated or semi-automated methods to identify such articles and add a template if appropriate.
137:. A Draft need not be quite so comprehensive or comprehensively referenced as these to be accepted, but they can help to give an idea of the sort of sources, sourcing, and tone that is required.
