Pageviews Analysis translations

Fragment of a discussion from User talk:Wladek92

First point : Description of the 'category' source in the Massviews tool. This is shown below the input field, and also in the FAQ. $1 is a link to a page describing what a category is, with the message 'category' as the link text.

I am doubtful about the gender of $1 in "Get the pageviews of pages in a $1" ; $1='catégorie' is female so the suggestion is accepted. $1='PagePile' doesnt exist in french. It is a compound word based on 'pile' which is female. So both terms match with a female style ... ok, but problem will be when $1 represents a masculine entity.

I ve corrected: Old text-> Obtenir le nombre de vues des pas dans un $1 New text-> Obtenir le nombre de vues des pages dans une $1


2nd point: Obtenir le nombre de pages vues renvoyé par une recherche, en utilisant le moteur CirrusSearch

https://translatewiki.net/w/i.php?title=Wikimedia:Pageviews-massviews-search-description/fr&action=history

Here Gomoko has translated as if the NUMBER is returned by CirrusSearch engine. You need to clarify me: what doest the CirrusSearch engine return ? if it is a number of pages, the translation is good (masculine singular related to NUMBER). If CirrusSearch engine returns a list of PAGES then the text must be corrected using (feminin, plural related to PAGES) as suggested in the remark. => please clarify Thank you.

Both of these messages are similar in that $1 is a link. For the Wikimedia:Pageviews-massviews-search-description/fr message specifically, $1 is a link to the CirrusSearch help page with "CirrusSearch" as the link text. I'm not sure if this is the best way to do this, if not, I apologize.

Thanks for your assistance!

They correspond to different translated texts. So we must separate the explainations following the proposed analysis.

Added: reloading Topviews interface page appears not modified. May be wait more, or require the replication of translations for the correction to be effective on the tool page.
