Move to the bottom of the template


- [ ] Wrap plain URLs in `<>` to linkify them ([learn more](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix.org/blob/main/CONTENT.md#publishing-to-the-blog)).
- [ ] Use the right level of headings: The page title will use a level 1 headings, so your headings should use level 2 and below.

We want to convert these into CI checks using rumdl


- [ ] Use internal links: when linking to another page on <https://matrix.org>, use the Zola `[label](@/target.md)` [syntax](https://www.getzola.org/documentation/content/linking/#internal-links).

Move to CONTENT.md but only check as reviewer


<!-- Please describe what you added here, and add a screenshot or video if possible.
That makes it easier to understand the change. -->
### :heavy_check_mark: Checklist
<!-- Please tick as appropriate, but don't remove this checklist from your PR, as it is useful for reviewers, too. -->
- [x] Keep this checklist
- Check for common mistakes:
- [ ] Wrap plain URLs in `<>` to linkify them ([learn more](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix.org/blob/main/CONTENT.md#publishing-to-the-blog)).
- [ ] Use the right level of headings: The page title will use a level 1 headings, so your headings should use level 2 and below.
- [ ] Use internal links: when linking to another page on <https://matrix.org>, use the Zola `[label](@/target.md)` [syntax](https://www.getzola.org/documentation/content/linking/#internal-links).
- For blog posts:
- [ ] Verify the date and post ordering on the `/blog` page, especially for multiple posts on the same day. Prefer UTC format, e.g. `2025-12-01T14:00:00Z` for Dec 1st, 2025, 2pm UTC.
- [ ] Set the correct author and category. Browse existing ones at <https://matrix.org/author/> and <https://matrix.org/category/> to match them.

also move to CONTENT.md


- [ ] If you hold a specific role in relation to the content you are contributing, such as project maintainer or on behalf of a team or organisation, please let us know. See [example](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix.org/pull/2969).
- [ ] If your PR is time-sensitive in any way, please mention the attached timeline and context in the PR description.
- [ ] Mention any issues related to the PR. Use [GitHub keywords](https://docs.github.com/en/issues/tracking-your-work-with-issues/using-issues/linking-a-pull-request-to-an-issue#linking-a-pull-request-to-an-issue-using-a-keyword) as appropriate.

Convert to sections similar to description


make sure the PR bot CI still has something to match, but also change the match to something that actually needs to stay, not some comment.
