How to moderate pages in Confluence

Question

I've seen a few community posts discussing this question, but they're a little dated (example 2013 accepted answer is a workaround: Solved: Moderating changes to Confluence pages (atlassian.com).

Are there any recent changes or ideas on how to do this since it doesn't seem to be possible yet?

What I mean by moderate is to prevent publishing to a specific space until after it's gone thru a review process. This would be analogous to how an article might be published after going thru a review process.

Without going into specifics there are observable reasons why we would want to moderate, ensuring our documentation meets a certain standard.

@Lance Waldrop What do you mean by "moderate", can you please elaborate?

There is a few feature and third party app that can help with it, but it would be useful to learn more about your particular use case.

I guess it depends on your definition of moderation.

Confluence is at it's heart a wiki, not a document control tool.  If you lean towards the latter, your best bet is to look at the marketplace add-ons to see which fit your needs. If you treat it like a wiki, why moderate?
