**Request Status:** New Request
**Request Type:** project support request
**Request Title:** Content Translation Recommendations API
--
- **Request Description:** [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_translation | Content Translation ]] integrates [[ https://recommend.wmflabs.org/ | the existing recommendation API ]], which cannot support important needs for our users. Research showed that users need more control on the topic areas to get their suggestions (currently the only customization is based on showing suggestions related to their recent edits). In addition, as part of [[ https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Content_translation/Section_translation | the Section Translation project ]] we need to suggest not only articles missing, but also articles that exist in both languages and can be expanded by translating a new section. These requirements are not supported by the current API which also is generally unmaintained.

- **Ideal Delivery Date:** 2021-22 Fiscal year (ideally Q3)
