Button connection and wind speed measurement (pullUP or pullDOWN)

Hello,
I am currently working on the wiring diagram for restart, HIGH button and interrupt wind speed measurement. For those buttons, a 10K resistor together with a 100nF capacitor is enough. For wind speeds I will use a resistance lower than 1K. I want to ask if I'm right. I'm basically doing this for the first time.
I will be very happy for help from skillful craftsmen.

But what I find out is that the parallel connection of the capacitor with the button is wrong. The capacitor is shorted. So which scheme will be correct?
THIS?

Hm, I initially thought the cap is 100nF, like the other three, which makes sense for debouncing or getting rid of HF crap... but it's 5uF. That makes it a lowpass filter that probably smoothes all the pulses from the anemometer into nothing.
