The Production Desk receives the article from the Standards Desk and the picture from the Art Desk. It sends the finished article to your dashboard, ready for your site.
The Production Desk brings the checked text, picture, search details and every desk's verdict into the finished article. It preserves the decisions already made and sends the result to your dashboard, ready for your site.
This gives you the article and the record behind it in one place. Without that assembly, the status, desk findings and items needing your attention could be separated from the finished work. The article's panel shows which desks took part and what each found.
One desk, one job. Nothing inside it is split into roles.
The Production Desk receives the checked article from the Standards Desk and the picture from the Art Desk. It also receives the search details and each desk's record of what it found and did. By this point, the facts, search promise, writing and house standards have all been checked. The Standards Desk has decided whether the article is ready or awaiting review, and the Production Desk keeps that verdict as given.
It sends the finished article to your dashboard with its status, text, picture and search details. Where your site supports them, it also includes links to related articles you have already published. The article's panel travels with it and lists the desks involved and what each found, using plain verdicts, counts and short notes. It keeps private deliberation out of the panel. A quotation inside a desk note becomes "[quotation withheld]" before the note reaches the panel. If no fetched page carries a person's name, the article remains locked until someone accepts the name.

If no fetched page carries a person's name, the article cannot be published until someone accepts it.
The Fact Desk removes a quotation that appears in no source. Its note could repeat the unsupported words, so the Production Desk replaces the passage with "[quotation withheld]" before showing the note on your panel. You see the issue, while words nobody said stay out of the article.
The article panel lists the desks that took part and what each found, using plain verdicts, counts and short notes. It also shows what still needs your attention, while private deliberation and the words of a withheld quotation stay out of view.
