# Pull Request Template
## Description
This PR fixes an issue (CW-5529) where articles displayed on the widget
were not respecting the current locale set in the URL (e.g., `/ar` was
showing English articles).
The root cause was that the article queries in the
`_featured_articles.html.erb` and `_uncategorized-block.html.erb` view
templates were missing locale filtering.
The fix involves adding `locale: @locale` to the `articles.where`
clauses in these templates to ensure that only articles matching the
current portal locale are displayed.
Fixes #CW-5529
## Type of change
- [x] Bug fix (non-breaking change which fixes an issue)
- [ ] New feature (non-breaking change which adds functionality)
- [ ] Breaking change (fix or feature that would cause existing
functionality not to work as expected)
- [ ] This change requires a documentation update
## How Has This Been Tested?
The changes were verified against existing test cases that confirm the
expected behavior for locale-specific article filtering. Specifically,
tests for the articles controller's `index` action and article count by
locale were reviewed, which align with the implemented fixes.
