Dear Mina, I am sorry. You did not see drafts in the newsroom because they were already moved to the publication. This process has been communicated many times in email, on facebook, on Wiki, etc. I'm sorry there was a misunderstanding, and I'm also sorry that you did not reach out earlier to ask this question. I must publish now, before I leave for my flight and attend the collab meeting in Armenia. If you can get your article in the newsroom, we will see how we can include it in this month's publication within the next week. After all, a Wiki can be edited, it is not set in stone.
