As an editor, it would be useful for the "Story was successfully published" language that appears across the bottom of the screen to say "Story was successfully updated" when a story is updated after its original publication. The "published" language is confusing and makes me think I published a story that was not already live and not yet meant to be live, while "updated" language would make it clear I merely updated an already-live story.
Additionally, when a story has been updated after an initial publish, it would be helpful if the language at the top of left of the screen (that follows the format of "Published 6/1/26 at 10:45 AM") either:
Was changed to say "Updated 6/1/26 at 10:45 AM" or "Last published 6/1/26 at 10:45 AM"
Gave the initial publish time
It is VERY confusing to see the current "Published" language when a story was in fact just updated, and makes me think i've accidentally initially published something that was not already live
