CrowdIn

Main page for Roll20's 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.

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.
