"On" Vs. "For"

1. "An article on the next election"

2. "Six copies left for the latest issue of the People magazine"

Hi, I'm trying to figure out when you should use for instead of on in terms of concerning something.

Does on only take place when it follows (a/any?) noun or (a/any?) verb?

And for, adverb and adjective only?

Thank you

Natural use of the most common prepositions is not an easy skill to master. Study a dictionary which gives lots of example sentences. Also, read lots of articles, books and stories.
