Hello wonderful translators!
Late next week, the Foundation plans to send out a message to the communities thanking them for their efforts around COVID-19 and providing some additional information. To help reach a wide audience, we are spending some time translating that message: https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/COVID-19/April_2020_-_Message_from_Wikimedia...
Any assistance any of you could provide in translating this message would be greatly appreciated. If you have any questions, please let me know.
Thank you!! -greg

I've completed the translation in Dutch. I've also made three tiny corrections[1] in the source and marked those for translation.
Cheers!

Last Sunday, April 5th, we counted over 673 million pageviews in a single day across our projects, a five-year high (from when we started using these measurements), and an increase of 30.5% above the same day last year. At the time of this writing (Wednesday, April 8th) that was a new record for our projects. On Sunday, 29 March, we counted over 650 million pageviews in a single day across our projects, a record five-year high (from when we started using these measurements), and an increase of 31.5% above the same day last year.
I find this paragraph confusing. Do we need these two almost identical sentences? Isn't "five-year high" the same as "a new record"? Is it the text or just me?.. *--* *Vira Motorko // Віра Моторко* mobile: +380667740499 | facebook: vira.motorko https://www.facebook.com/vira.motorko | wikipedia: Ата https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Ата

Hi Vira,
I need to preface my comments here by saying that when I've been sleep-deprived and/or in a hurry, I've sent emails that I've later wished were more coherent and had fewer errors.
I would recommend that Katherine rewrite that paragraph for greater clarity and improved flow. If you want to translate the current version of that paragraph, yes it will probably sound awkward.
So, it's not just you.
