Please put all article publishing on a single page. It takes way too long to go from screen to screen to publish an article. Make it more like the blog. Make sure you validate on the client so we don't lose everything we typed.

Argue for it, argue against it, or say what it would take to build.

Has this suggestio been adopted? If not and if you don't mind, can you clarify how you publish an article? I know of only one way. As far as I know, we must create a Word document for each article and then upload that. As an editor, I see a page that seems to be like the one you are suggesting, but I don't know how that can be used by everyone if it can be.

there are two ways to publish an article. one is to upload a word document, the other way is to put the HTML directly in yourself. Previously, there was only one way. To add your article content yourself by pasting into an HTML control. This was fine except that it took you through a long slow wizard with several steps. It was unnecessary to have this on 3 different pages. Now it can all be done at once, and you only have one postback to the server. Not only that your article is published right away if you are long standing author with the site.
