8. Why can't I find the "Salesian Bulletin Archive" page in my language?

The "Salesian Bulletin Archive" page is an index of the printed Salesian Bulletin in Italian, from the beginning of 1877 until today, which has links pointing to the digital version of the individual issues of the same Bulletin. There is no point in translating an index that refers to Italian texts in PDF.
In any case, if you wish to consult it in your own language, you can use the automatic translation method described above in no.1. Individual PDFs, being searchable, also lend themselves to content translation.
