People, who use properties to organise their writing projects in Obsidian, how do you track drafts and state of completion?

help

I'd say I have my properties figured out across the most of my vault. But I want to mark my projects completion state in more intuitive way. As it is, I just do whatever: sometimes I just add "draft" to the note title, sometimes I tag it as draft, sometimes I add a description, that specifies number of the draft.

I'd like to use properties to better differentiate between first draft, final draft and any draft in between, as well as projects submitted for publishing and going trough revision and changes, or different versions of the same text prepared for different needs.

You don't have to figure anything out for me, I just need some inspiration to really get there. Thank you in advance!
