      Description

      Sometimes the snapshot news articles are not available from all languages (looks like they are only available with  en-us selected as language). I do not expect the articles to be translated in all of those languages, but they should be available in english for all languages.

      Observed Behaviour

      The latest release candidate news page (as well as some other snapshot articles, I can't remember) is not available in all languages (e.g. de-de), the page simply displays a 404 error.

      Expected Behaviour

      All articles should be available regardless which language is selected with it's content being available in either english or (if translated) in the selected language.

      Steps to Reproduce

      1. Go this article: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/minecraft-1-21-4-release-candidate-1
      2. Change the language in the bottom left of the page to (e.g. German/Deutsch)
      3. See you're being redirected to the main page instead of staying on the page

      OR

      1. Go to this same article in german: https://www.minecraft.net/de-de/article/minecraft-1-21-4-release-candidate-1
      2. See there is a 404

      EDIT

      • The mentioned example article no longer results in a 404, but it's missing it's content in other languages than english.

      Details

      This does not apply to all posts (actually it's the minority of posts, it's rather rare), but I was unable to find a pattern on when it does happen and when it does not.
