The [[ https://en.wikipedia.org/api/rest_v1/#!/Recommendation/get_data_recommendation_article_creation_translation_from_lang_seed_article | translation end point of the Recommendation API ]] depends on the Wikidata Query Service (WDQS). Replacing a call to WDQS by a call to the MediaWiki API (MW API) should make the service faster and reduce issues with testing on the beta cluster.
