 This is a property of type [[Has type::Text]].
 
 The allowed values for this property are:

 * [[Allows value::In development]]
 * [[Allows value::Draft]]

 [[Property:Has_paper_status]]
 {{Property:Has_paper_status}}

 | label6       = Start Date
 | data6        = [[Start date::{{{Start date|}}}]]
