Description
User story
As an editor, I filtered the published article list by article type and got 79 results. Based on the order (date - most recent), I expected to see more recent articles at the top, but they weren't there. I did not realize I was on page 4 of the results until I contacted tech support and they told me I needed to go to page 1.
Proposed solution
Add more information to the line about the number of results, to provide a hint about the pagination. Something like this:
"Showing results 50-75 of 79"

Research direction
Start from the published article list view after filtering by article type and inspect its pagination and result-count entry point. Done when the result line identifies the visible range and total for each page, including a case such as 50-75 of 79.
