The phrase "{actors} replied to the project discussion {topic}" (http://www.geni.com/tr8n/phrases/view?translation_key_id=228683) needs a {num} token for the number of actors so that singular/ plural verb forms can be used.

In fact all phrases containing "{actors}" (http://www.geni.com/tr8n/phrases?section_key=&search={actors}) need this issue fixed. There are some that use "{actor}" (e.g. http://www.geni.com/tr8n/phrases?section_key=&search={actor}+re...), but they don't have an equivalent for every "{actors}" phrase, and my newsfeed is full of reports of a singular actor which use the "{actors}" phrase instead.

Maybe I'm not understanding, but it seems to work in Spanish.

You're right; I see what you mean. But trying to do the same thing in German (sorry, should have mentioned the language) only gives the {viewing_user} gender.

That context rule must not be active in German. Perhaps the Geni team Private User can respond to my earlier post about requesting management of German?

I'll get Noah to hook you up tomorrow.

Excellent, vielen Dank. :)

Private User, you should be all set now.

Thanks, Private User! Finally able to fix those pesky context rules. :)
