As the topic states, who the heck is "wing-it" on git and why did they overwrite my translations.json with an old version hosing the Shadowrun Sixth World character sheet? <a href="https://github.com/Roll20/roll20-character-sheets/commit/7d5e5483c2598fe62e8da71d7517c3535b73d32a" rel="nofollow">https://github.com/Roll20/roll20-character-sheets/commit/7d5e5483c2598fe62e8da71d7517c3535b73d32a</a> There was absolutely no reason to roll this file back it was working correctly.

Hi Chuz, I suspect that this was as a result of some stray automation somewhere. I've begun an investigation into what caused this to happen. I'm sorry that this inconvenienced you. I'll let you know when I have an answer as to way this occurred.

This issue was further discussed and resolved elsewhere, just updating the thread so folks who find the thread knows what happened, and how to work around similar problems. Resolution/Followup It seems that using some special characters in i18n translation strings causes problems for the translation service automation, to the point that it will revert the . translation.json file to a state where it doesn't contain the special character. In this case, the problems was ¥ , the yen/yuan currency symbol. By removing it from the translations and having the ¥ just in the HTML of the sheet, the translation.json won't be affected. wing-it is a roll20 developer who commits the automated translation updates from CrowdIn to the character sheet repo.
