Description

Make it so any new pages made are automatically turned into drafts. At least for those who aren' moderators/don't have the power to review drafts for submission.

My idea came from this. I like making pages for things that don't yet have one. I recently made a page for the en:Maximal rank conjecture. However, it is garbage so far. This is partly due to the fact that I am an inexperienced editor. Also, I don't know how to make it a draft. Now, when a person makes a page, it is automatically made the official page until it is noticed and moved to draftspace if necessary. I believe that to prevent bad pages, pages made by editors, especially inexperienced ones like myself, should be automatically made drafts to prevents things like this page, en:Maximal rank conjecture, from happening.
