Usage
This template is used for articles submitted through the drafting process, when you have a comment for the submitter.
{{draft comment|1=your comment here}}
which displays your comment. For example,
{{draft comment|1=It's an excellent article, but it needs some more references.}}
would display
Comment: It's an excellent article, but it needs some more references.
In the most common situations, you can alternatively use this slightly simpler form:
{{draft comment|your comment here}}
Note lack of "1=" in this simpler use of template-syntax. However, this simplified syntax does not work when your comment contains an equals sign (including the equals signs in URLs such as https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Template:Draft_comment). In case of difficulty (e.g. an error message saying "no comment detected"), please use the {{draft comment|1=your comment here}} syntax.
