Pagination: Needs content written

[sonnakim]

Which page is this about? https://cfpb.github.io/design-system/patterns/pagination

What kind of issue is this?

• Needs content written (page is missing key information, e.g. use cases)

Describe your issue

• Content guidelines are only for tables, and not illuminating
• Needs more use case information and content guidelines (e.g. how many results do we typically show per page, what does this look like at mobile breakpoint)

Size this request (1=tiny, 5=enormous)

Ok! I've updated the page. Just a note that we're not consistent across the site in how many results we display per page:

• 25 results / page: All of the many filterable list pages, e.g. final rules page. Also showing 25 results per page: iRegs search results
• 20 results / page: Ask CFPB search results, Prepaid card agreements
• 10 results / page: money topic answer pages
• 5 results/page: financial literacy activities finder

In the DS, I added guidance to reflect the fact that most pages have 20-25 results/page, but we might want to think about standardizing to one number, either 20 or 25, so at least we have one less decision to agonize over in the future. (The choice of 5 results per page financial literacy activities finder seems deliberate, especially given how the results are laid out. But everything else seems ripe for standardizing.)

El Camino discussed and decided to standardize this to 25 results per page, since we've successfully usability tested pages with that number of results. I'll change the standard on the pagination page, and separately open an issue on our internal repo to handle getting this done.
