British English is preferred for user-facing text; this text should also be marked for translation (using the django.utils.translation.gettext function and {% trans %} template tag, for example). However, identifiers within code should use American English if the British or international spelling would conflict with built-in language keywords; for example, CSS code should consistently use the spelling color to avoid inconsistencies like background-color: $colour-red.
Where practical, try to adhere to the existing convention of file names within the folder where added.
