Final answer:
To revert an article to draft status, open the document, review it, and reject any revisions. Delete comments and save the changes.
Step-by-step explanation:
Action: Revert to Draft
- Open the document you want to review, and click the Review tab above the tools ribbon.
- Read the draft as you normally would, looking for areas to comment on.
- Note the places where you can provide positive comments as well as possible places for revision.
- To reject a revision, click Reject in the tools ribbon.
- When you finish, be sure you have accepted or rejected all of the edits and deleted all comments so that they don't appear in the final draft.
- Check that no red text remains in the paper and that no comments remain in the right margin.
- When you are finished, be sure to save your changes.
