 1. Navigated to the Admin Dashboard (`/wp-admin/`).

 slightly misaligned before applying the patch.
 3. Applied the patch from [https://github.com/WordPress/wordpress-
 develop/pull/11069 PR #11069].
 4. Refreshed the Dashboard page and observed the empty widget containers
 again.
 === Result
 1. The patch fixes the issue. Empty dashboard widget containers are now
 properly aligned.
 === Expected result
 - The empty widget containers should be properly aligned with the other
 dashboard widget columns.
 === Additional Notes
 - The patch adds `margin: 4px;` to the empty dashboard widget container in
 `dashboard.css`.
 - No regressions observed.
