CrowdIn
wiki:CrowdIn is a company Roll20 uses for organizing the internal & crowd-sourced translations of the Platform menus & Character sheets. To gain access to Roll20's translation things, you need a CrowdIn account & requested translation access from Roll20 to it.
Roll20 usually updates translations once a week(Tuesday), taking all the changes suggested through CrowdIn and from GitHub, and combining them into one. Changes submitted through are therefore never updated immediately, but take time until Roll20 have reviewed the changes.

Translation Menu
Tranlsation Menu Overview
- Center Top: Shows the original version of this word/string. Usually English
- Center Middle: Where you write the new translation
- Center Bottom: Shows the current translation(if any), and how the same word/string have been translated in other languages
- Right Side: Any discussions on translating this word/string, useful for making notes for the future if someone later opens the same word.
- Left side: Shows the list of word/strings for the section you're viewing at the moment. Instances that have been translated have a green marker next to them, while untranslated entires are marked red.
Example
Here is an gif showing how to update the translation of a single word on a community character sheet.(You would of course press the "Save"-button at the end)
Discussions
This section shows any translation discussions people are having regarding any particular translation, which makes it easier to coordinate with others.
Character Sheet Translation
Character Sheet Translation have info on how to update a character sheet to have translation capabilities, if it previously didn't have them. It also has a section for making language-specific changes to character sheet looks, such as changing the width of a span so a longer word in another language doesn't get obscured, or to change images/logos depending on which language is used.
If a character sheet already have translation.json files on GitHub and you want to provide an translation to it, Roll20 prefers that you update translations through CrowdIn, and not to make a PR to GitHub. They have some automated processes for pulling translations from CrowdIn, which overrides/interferes with any changes submitted to github.
- You can post in the Character Sheet Requests Q3 2021(Forum)-thread to request someone to make translation capabilities to a sheet.
