Is this still something that core needs to support? We have 2 well maintained modules mentioned here https://www.drupal.org/project/override_node_options → and https://www.drupal.org/project/publishcontent →
Core also provides content moderation for much finer control over publishing workflows and permissions.

IMHO, yes, this is something core should do. Reading the comments, we've got "yes this is a good idea" from all sorts of folks who are either past or current release managers, product managers, etc. It's fairly absurd that we have granular permissions for delete, but not publish/unpublish. Yes, content moderation provides more advanced publishing workflows. But for something so fundamental to a content management system as publish status, I think core needs to solve this.

Just marked 🐛 Users can edit/delete content but not unpublish it Active duplicate with this, which had 35 followers.
I imagine there are other duplicates lurking in the issue queue for this.
This is a very common need. Further evidence core should provide this out of the box.Thanks!

@dww no worries! Lots of these very old issues have those types of comments that have since gone stale so I'm asking the question as of 2025 with all our new tools :)
