They don't need to be a full admin, but they do need administer nodes
privileges. I typically give this for site editors.

Huh. Earlier today I attempted to explain to some user how to write and
edit content (pages, say), save it, but only publish it later once the

Do I need to be an admin to publish / unpublish nodes ?
