Simple ASL adds articles, tutorials, reviews, and news

We shipped a full content-type layer on top of the dictionary. Every piece has a named byline, a Deaf-reviewer slot, and stays out of search until it's been reviewed.

Simple ASL now publishes four kinds of content alongside the existing dictionary: articles, tutorials, reviews, and news. Each has its own schema.org type, its own sitemap, and its own editorial gate before it can be indexed by search engines.

The dictionary entries that do not have authored prose yet are now hidden from search until they cross a quality threshold — three or more proof links, or a real editorial pass. Users can still reach them through on-site search.
