   > There are 2 issues with this PR:
   > 
   >     * The Ref Guide URLs used will always point to the "latest" version of 
the Ref Guide, so when someone is using 9.0 and the "latest" Ref Guide is 9.5, 
they will get redirected to the 9.5 version which may be significantly wrong 
for them. I brought this up in the issue and believe it's a serious limitation 
that needs to be accounted for.
   > 
   >     * In just a short spot check I noticed at least one case where the 
replacement Ref Guide page has been renamed in `main` branch, but this uses the 
branch_8x name (`detecting-languages-during-indexing` -> `language-detection`). 
This leads me to believe there may be several other of these so I didn't check 
further.
   
   I did run into the versioning issue as well, at least one file that I swore 
existed, `script-update-processor.adoc` is only in Solr 9, not in Solr 8.  My 
goal on this was just to try and remove the old wiki links, and not try to 
solve the versioning problem.   I figure once we solve the versioning issue, 
well, then we probably would need to make all these links smarter anyway, which 
would mean a pass through everywhere we reference links.  
   
   As far as the links to unreleased 9 versus released 8, my workflow was to 
try the link, see if it redirected to a existing ref guide (I landed on a bunch 
of version `/6_6/` pages that way), and then if not, look in the latest Ref 
Guide to find something.   
   
   Do we have a link checker that runs that would find these?
