Nothing failed, the button was just gone

vandatateam.com has a blog in English and Vietnamese. The Vietnamese posts were machine-translated, and I edited 69 of them against the English originals.

In 8 of them the translation had also renamed a key in the frontmatter, the block of settings at the top of each post. With the key renamed, the post lost its call to action.

Nothing failed. The button was just gone, and I found it only because I was reading each post next to its original.

A translator changes structure as well as words, so the structure of the output needs a check of its own.
