Multiple non-English localized articles, including but not limited to:
What changes are you suggesting?
The automated localization pipeline needs to be fixed so it doesn't break Markdown syntax when handling Liquid variables.
Additional information
The Issue:
In the localized versions (e.g., Chinese, Japanese, French), Markdown links that contain Liquid variables in the text part are failing to render. Instead of rendering as clickable hyperlinks, they are displayed as raw Markdown syntax, often wrapped in a plain text code block.
Example from source:
* [{% data variables.product.prodname_dotcom %} Flavored Markdown Spec](https://github.github.com/gfm/)
Actual Behavior (in localized docs):
It renders exactly as [GitHub Flavored Markdown の仕様](https://github.github.com/gfm/) or [Spécification Flavored Markdown GitHub](https://github.github.com/gfm/) in plain text.
Expected Behavior:
It should render as a standard, clickable HTML <a> link.
