Workflow templates

Each template is an ordinary workflow: start from one, change any node, and publish it as your own. This page is generated from the templates themselves when the docs are built. Each template’s anchor is its id, and each node links to its entry in the node catalog.

A template marked gates publish is meant to be the only way an entry it covers is published. See Workflows.
