How to override the django admin translation?

问题

I'm trying to override the default translations of Django's admin site.

I'm using Django 1.6. My settings.py contains:

import os
BASE_DIR = os.path.dirname(os.path.dirname(__file__))

# ...

LANGUAGE_CODE = 'nl'
USE_I18N = True
USE_L10N = True
LOCALE_PATHS = (os.path.join(BASE_DIR, "locale"),)

I have copied the file django/contrib/admin/locale/nl/LC_MESSAGES/django.po to my_project/locale/nl/LC_MESSAGES/django.po and I've made some changes to it.

Next, I have run python manage.py compilemessages and python manage.py runserver.

When I visit localhost:8000/admin, however, I'm still seeing Django's default admin translations. What am I doing wrong?

Edit - I found the problem:

The above description is the correct way to override app translations. I followed my own instructions and they work. The reason for my problem was that I accidentally omitted the nl subdirectory the first time. I am a dumb person.
