### Translations
Other directories sit alongside the main `pages` directory, and contain translations of the master versions of every page - though pages MAY NOT have a translation available for a given language yet. Furthermore, a given language MAY NOT have a folder yet either. The format of these directories is `pages.{language-tag}`, where `{language-tag}` is a [BCP 47](https://tools.ietf.org/html/bcp47) conforming tag in the form of `<language>-<region>`, where:
Other directories sit alongside the main `pages` directory, and contain translations of the master versions of every page - though pages MAY NOT have a translation available for a given language yet. Furthermore, a given language MAY NOT have a folder yet either. The format of these directories is `pages.<locale>`, where `<locale>` is a [POSIX Locale Name](https://www.gnu.org/software/gettext/manual/html_node/Locale-Names.html#Locale-Names) in the form of `<language>_<country>`, where:
- `<language>` is the shortest [ISO 639](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_639) language code for the chosen language (see [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_ISO_639-2_codes) for a complete list).
- `<region>` is the two-letter [ISO 3166-1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1) region code for the chosen region (see [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2#Officially_assigned_code_elements) for a complete list).
- `<country>` is the two-letter [ISO 3166-1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1) country code for the chosen region (see [here](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_3166-1_alpha-2#Officially_assigned_code_elements) for a complete list).
Some examples:
- Chinese (Taiwan): `pages.zh-TW`.
- Portuguese (Brazil): `pages.pt-BR`.
- German (Germany): `pages.de-DE`.
You can check the validity of BCP 47 tags [here](http://schneegans.de/lv/).
- Chinese (Taiwan): `pages.zh_TW`.
- Portuguese (Brazil): `pages.pt_BR`.
- Italian: `pages.it`.
The structure inside these translation folders is identical to that of the main `pages` folder.
