Conversation
Align sitemap, canonical and navigation URLs with the existing extensionless Google-selected routes. Add explicit translated-page navigation, two missing English guides and six static-host redirect pages. Strengthen official project identity and validate generated HTML, links, language, hreflang and redirect targets during every documentation build.

Google-selected URLs and internal links use clean paths while the site currently declares .html canonicals and sitemap entries. The default language picker also invents filenames for translated slugs, producing obsolete URLs that return 404.
This change aligns all canonical, sitemap, language and version navigation URLs with the existing extensionless routes. It maps translated pages explicitly, preserves archive context, adds English digital/analog and troubleshooting guides, and generates six immediate HTML redirects for obsolete public routes. GitHub Pages cannot provide per-path HTTP 301s through this repository, so the aliases use zero-second meta refreshes with canonical destinations rather than claiming HTTP redirects.
The home pages identify the official SerialCraft project and current beta more clearly. English archives now declare the correct document language. Generated HTML checks verify all 52 canonical pages, every internal link, reciprocal hreflang, redirect targets and sitemap exclusions.
Validation: local VitePress production build and route/output regression checks pass. No mod Java code, assets, dependencies or release version changes. After CI and deployment, verify live pages and submit the updated sitemap and selected reindexing requests in Search Console. Search ranking remains Google's decision.
