Build Log
The Blog Changed Jobs
A section name should tell readers what kind of evidence they will find. On 17 July the site separated two jobs that had been sharing one folder.
Topic content and process evidence
The first blog contained six pieces about leave planning, wellbeing, privacy, and calculation. They were useful reader-facing material, but they were about the subject of the site. The portfolio standard now gives that material a clear home in Articles.
The Blog became the Build Log: a record of planning, building, checking, releasing, and maintaining the website itself. This distinction is functional. Articles demonstrate subject usefulness; the Build Log demonstrates the process and experience behind the product.
A route migration without broken history
The six subject pieces moved from /blog/ to /articles/. Titles, canonical URLs, breadcrumbs, schema labels, navigation, and sitemap entries changed with them. Twelve permanent redirect rules cover both old extension-bearing and extensionless forms, so saved links continue to reach the correct content.
The Build Log then launched with reconstructed entries based on dated project history. Each reconstruction was disclosed. That constraint matters: a retrospective account can organise recorded facts, but it cannot invent a neat development story that the records do not support.
What became standard
Portfolio blogs are now technical by definition, newest first, with BlogPosting schema and a continuing maintenance cadence. Topic advice belongs in Articles even when it was historically called a blog post. Route changes include redirects by default.
The result is visible in the separate Articles hub, this Build Log, and the public Editorial Standards.
