I haven't been here all that long, but often find myself getting ideas for Hubs when I don't have time to write them. For a couple of them, I clicked "start a new hub", entered the title and a note to self, and saved it unpublished for the moment so I could come back to it later. I noticed though, that those unfinished/unpublished hubs bring a Hubber's score down on the "my accounts" page. Perhaps that isn't significant, but if the potential Hub idea is going to require a little bit of research and more time than you have at the moment to complete, it would be nice to have a section dedicated to that. It would minimally require a field for the intended subject, a notes section to jot down a brief snippet of the idea, and a button to "start a new hub" from that snippet when you are ready to follow through.
Cheers!

Not a bad idea.
However hub and author score have no influence on anything but stopping spammers from getting easy dofollow links. So I wouldn't worry about the scores.
And when you do post a hub unpublished, even with just a title, you'll find that it will build up a higher hubscore without you adding anymore content. I have hubs with just titles sitting in the low 60s.

I am competely happy with this, but he also wants to publish my poem on his blog (crediting me as the author). Is this ok or will it cause duplicate issues - or will it be ok with a...

For adult content? Really? There is no nudity at all in that Hub. I respectfully request that the restriction be lifted. All the images were found on the web in spite of strict filters being imposed upon my search. There is nothing in that hub that anyone couldn't see on a magazine rack in the...

Is a warning for being overly promotional on an unpublished hub a bad thing?I am working on a hub right now that will include links to several different sites. I went ahead and found the sites I intend to use and put them in an unpublished hub just as a way to save them. I intend to go...
