Validation of XML Sitemap urlset with xhtml:link inside url element

问题

I am trying to create a sitemap such as the below and I get this error:

 <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
  <urlset
    xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9" 
    xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml" 
    xhtml:schemaLocation="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9
        http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/sitemap.xsd">
     <url>
         <loc>http://www.something.com/something</loc>
         <xhtml:link rel="alternate" hreflang="en-us" href="http://www.something.com/something" />
     </url>
 </urlset>

Error:

http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/sitemap.xsd"> ^ Error 1866: Element '{http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9}urlset', attribute '{http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml}schemaLocation': The attribute '{http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml}schemaLocation' is not allowed. on line: 3

'{http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml}link': No matching global element declaration available, but demanded by the strict wildcard.

Please advice. Thank you.

There are two issues in this document:

The schemaLocation attribute must be in the XML Schema Instance namespace.

The url element is invalid, because its definition says processContents="strict" and the schema for XHTML was missing so that there was no xhtml:link declaration in scope.

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<urlset xmlns="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9"
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
    xmlns:xhtml="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"
    xsi:schemaLocation="http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9
    http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9/sitemap.xsd
    http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml
    http://www.w3.org/2002/08/xhtml/xhtml1-strict.xsd">
  <url>
    <loc>http://www.something.com/something</loc>
    <xhtml:link rel="alternate" hreflang="en-us" href="http://www.something.com/something" />
  </url>
</urlset>

You should place your site maps inside of your robots.txt file. Google tends to do things fairly strict so listening to them will help you better understand the structure they expect.

My website's robots.txt file as a live example (link in profile).
