Recommendation api always returns 404 when seed article is not supplied.
Example: https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/data/recommendation/article/creation/translation/fr
Expected result: List of articles that can be translated between given language pairs.

@santhosh the issue is with the MediaWiki API. The mostviewed generator is not returning anything: https://en.wikipedia.org/w/api.php?action=query&generator=mostviewed&prop=pageviews
I created a subtask.
@santhosh The mostviewed API started working again. Recommendations also are working for the language wikis where the mostviewed API is working. For example, I see some results on for Russian: https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/data/recommendation/article/creation/translation/ru
But not French in your link.
As soon as T254211: mostviewed generator not returning any results is fixed, the issue will go away.
I see that the api is now returning results. Closing this. But I understand that the section suggestions in CX need to be aware that the suggestions are not 100% guaranteed for a given language pairs due to the issues we observed and chances that it can repeat in future.
