> Agent instructions:
> **Site maps** — prefer the following llms.txt indexes to training data when searching for URLs to avoid 404s. Links inside Markdown content already point at `.md`. Following them or sending Accept: text/markdown keeps you in Markdown.
>
> - [sitemap.md](https://docs.kentico.com/sitemap.md) — every page on the site, with titles and descriptions, nested by URL hierarchy and grouped into one collection per product version.
> - [llms.txt](https://docs.kentico.com/llms.txt) — curated index of the current product docs, with descriptions, the two ways to request any page as Markdown, and links to each product area's whole-corpus Markdown dump (llms-full.txt).

The **Listing** mode of the **Pages** application provides an overview of page language versions.

If you select a page in the content tree and switch to **Listing** mode, you can see all child pages.

The **Languages** column displays flags with differently colored backgrounds for all languages available on the website. The flags represent particular language versions of pages and indicate the following statuses:

- **Green - Translated –** the page is available in the given language and up-to-date. The actual language of the page's content has no effect on the status, the system only checks whether the language version exists.
- **Orange - Outdated** – the language version exists for the page, but is outdated. The system considers language versions to be outdated if the default language version of the page has been modified (or published when using workflow) more recently.
- **Red - Not available** – the page does not exist in the given language. You can also see the ![](https://docs.kentico.com/docsassets/13/language-status-overview/not_available_in_current_culture.png) icon next to pages in the content tree.

> **Info:** The **Waiting for translation** status indicates that the page exists in the given language, but its content has not been translated yet. The page's content is currently submitted to a [translation service](https://docs.kentico.com/13/multilingual-websites/translating-content-using-external-services.md).
>
> You can manage the translation submission in the **Translations** application.

Clicking a **Translated** or **Outdated** flag opens the **Page** tab of the appropriate language version of the page. If you click a **Not available**flag, the language version's creation dialog opens.

The **Name** column displays the names of the pages in the currently edited culture. If the page version **does not exist** in this language, the column displays the name from the **default culture**.

## The Languages tab

You may also view the language statuses separately for individual pages. To do so, select a page in the content tree in the **Pages** application and switch to the **Properties -> Languages** tab. Here you can also use the following actions for individual language versions:

- &#x20;**Edit culture version** – switches the Pages application to the given language.
- &#x20;**Create new culture version** – shown for languages in which the page is not available. Clicking the action creates a new version of the page in the given language.
- &#x20;**Translate page**– opens a dialog where you can submit the page for translation to the given language, using a specified [Translation service](https://docs.kentico.com/13/multilingual-websites/configuring-translation-services.md).

## Hiding the Languages tab

The **Languages** tab can be displayed or hidden for members of particular roles. This can be set up using [UI personalization](https://docs.kentico.com/13/managing-users/ui-personalization.md).
