What happens to a Knowledge article if it is not approved by the selected category owner?

When a Knowledge article is submitted for approval, it relies on the category owner's decision to determine its status. If the article is not approved, it remains unpublished until the category owner reviews and approves it. This process ensures that only verified and appropriate content is made available to users, thereby maintaining the quality and reliability of the knowledge base.

This unpublished status allows for further revisions or improvements to be made to the article based on feedback, ensuring that when it does get approved, it meets the expected standards for publication.
