I have the Continue Working widget enabled on my dashboard/desktop to quickly return to articles I've been working on. However, the widget has stopped showing those recently-updated articles, seemingly around mid-February.   Checking the widget today for wow that's a lot of stars has Psi-Med as my most recently-updated article, but I haven't edited that since February 19. Sorting Athena by recently-updated shows 19 other articles higher in the list. There's one article in particular I've been working on that's not shown in Continue Working at all.   I've swapped worlds, hard refreshed, logged out and back in and the dashboard doesn't update that list. I've also heard from others that they're seeing the same problem, possibly with other Recent X widgets (like manuscripts) but I don't personally use those to comment.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Add Continue Working widget to desktop
  2. Edit something new
  3. Return to/refresh desktop
  4. Widget will not show recently-edited item

I noticed the same problem too, but it seems like only some things show up, like new articles or something and older ones don't.   In mine, Null's Diner shows up, and that's a new article from a few days ago, but the other day, I went back to an older article, Mochi's Mocha, to add something in the sidebar, and it doesn't show up in the Continue Working widget. Other things I've edited like blocks, maps, map markers, historical entries, and content trees have all shown up in this widget no problem. It seems like it's only pertaining to articles.
