It is also for copying existing pages to make significant changes to them. This can be done by creating a new page with a name the same as the existing page, with " - Updating" attached to it. Then copy the entire original page text (using the "edit source" option) and paste it into the new page. A little bit of a pain, but it will leave the original page undisturbed. The new page then needs to be modified to add a reference to this category, which should remain while the page is being updated.

This category is for any article that is new or is undergoing significant modification. Thus, when you start a new article, or want to make significant modifications to an existing article, make sure you include the line 

[[Category:Works In Progress]] <span style="color:red;"><br>Under construction/modification by ~~~<br></span>

preferably just after the synopsis of the article. The three tildes will supply a reference to your account on the wiki so that others will know who is working on this.

Since the articles in this category are truly works in progress, comments on these articles are not really appropriate.

After the author feels that the new or modified page is ready for publication, the category reference should be changed to the Category:Pending Review category by removing the above category reference and inserting

[[Category:Pending Review]] <span style="color:red;"><br>New or modified article by ~~~ undergoing review<br></span>

See the Category:Pending Review category page for further details on the page creation/updating and publishing procedures.
