Re: Versioning and approving pages
And approval is difficult when it's a Group in regards of permissions. I turned on approval of content and there is no change at all.
And once we turn on drafts on document library the synced library gave a message on local OneDrive client that a document library that I had synced was no longer write protected.
What is going on?

Check the settings on both Site Pages and your Document Library. This sounds like something is not set up correctly - but doesn't sound like something that can be resolved without looking at what you are doing.

Thing is, working on a page when versioning is turned on you don't get an response to publish to a full version anywhere. You have to and find it in the Site Pages and manually from there approve it.
Being a superuser and editor is hard stuff these days in SharePoint. A standard view should be added for all document libraries/lists which versioning is turned on so we can see which pages are candidates for publishing and approval. And why not toss in a view for pages that are locked by other users. Or a [Me] view in SharePoing start page where I can see pages I have locked for other users.
I get all the new wonderful things but it's hard being an evangelist when the basic needs of managing intranet sites are just not met.
