Hi @Eddy Witkamp 

Welcome to the community.

I can't reproduce this, tried it on multiple Confluences.

On my end they are drafts, until published.

Is there an automation rule active on the space, that triggers this?

All of my colleagues have the same issue (in Chrome Browser) leading to everyone receiving emails when they're tagged.

Where do I look for automation triggers?

As said, this wasn't an issue before and everyone is getting spammed with emails with info that's not complete, because people get no chance to write a Draft.

Hi @Eddy Witkamp 

Reading your comment, I am assuming someone had triggered an automation rule in your space. To see the automation rules, you will need to get added as one of the admin of the space your Confluence wiki is located.

Below is an example screenshot of the location to see the Automation rules:

I hope this helps!

Thanks,

@Eddy Witkamp In case it's not an automation rule, are you maybe duplicating a Live Doc, rather than a Page? Live Docs don't have a draft/publish paradigm.

No, it's pages.

Nothing changed in my space, this started happening all of a sudden.
