On articles, there will be an additional "Move to draft" menu option next to the regular "Move" option. In Vector skin, this is within the "More" dropdown menu.
Choosing the contributors to send the notification to Selecting "Move to draft" will bring up a list of contributors to whom notifications can be sent. This step is skipped if there is only one contributor to the page.
Next, a dialogue box is shown where the new draft title, the username of the author to notify, and a set of checkboxes to indicate the problem/s with the current version of the article can be chosen.
The In-progress screen in the middle of its tasks When the "Continue" button is clicked, the script will undertake the steps listed above. If there are any errors encountered with a step, you generally have the option to retry or skip it.
Note: for those without the page mover user-right, the redirect left behind from moving the article to draftspace will be tagged for CSD R2 deletion automatically.

"Move to draft" link placement: Add the line var m2d_portlet = "portletID";toyour common.js, replacing portletID with one of the portlet id values from Help:Customizing toolbars (the script's default location is p-cactions)
Move log rationale: Add the line var m2d_rationale = "rationale";toyour common.js, replacing rationale with custom text. The default rationale is [[WP:DRAFTIFY|Not ready]] for mainspace, incubate in draftspace
Edit summary for preparing article for draftspace: Add the line var m2d_editsummary = "editSummary";toyour common.js, replacing editSummary with custom text. The default rationale is [[WP:AFC|AFC]] draft
Disable logging within your userspace: Add the line var m2d_doNotLog = true;toyour common.js to disable logging moves (in/Draftify log within your userspace). Logging is enabled if this is omitted or set to false.
Contributor notification message
Use with caution, and only if you are sure what you're doing:
Add the line var m2d_notification = "Your message here";toyour common.js
Important: within your message:
You need to use $1 instead of the page title
You need to prevent wikitext transformations on the common.js page itself (i.e. \~~\~~ instead of ~~~~, \{\{subst: instead of {{subst: for any template substitution)
You need to escape any quotation marks (" characters) as \" to avoid syntax errors.
Any actual backslashes (\ characters) need to be escaped as \\.
Location of your log file: You can change the location of the Draftify_log file by creating a redirect from User:Username/Draftify_log to whatever location you prefer (as long as it is within your userspace).
