When you click on “Show translations” you can see all the languages this e-mail protest was translated to. To the right in green you see “Draft” which means these e-mail protests are not published. When they are you’ll see a small blue field saying “Published”.

- Click on “Add filter”
- Choose “Campaign” and select “Cutie”
But you want to see the unpublished ones to so you click on the “x” at the right of the “publishing state” field.
You’ll see quite a few pages. In this case, most of them are not published.
