Updated this ticket to purely mention the realms strings since these were the only strings that were fixed in throughout this bug report. The untranslatable multiplayer strings are now being tracked separately at MC-262370.
The world types that appear in the "Changes from last backup" screen in Realms are not translatable. These appear after replacing the active world with an experience/inspiration/adventure map/template, waiting for Realms to create a backup, and then checking the "Changes from last backup" screen.
It seems there are 4 possible strings:
- ADVENTUREMAP
- EXPERIENCE
- INSPIRATION
- NORMAL
The language in the attached screenshots is set to Italian, which has been 100% translated on Crowdin. The above strings are missing from the language files and thus are untranslatable.

For context, we've split up
MC-18060.MC-18060now concerns the untranslatable realms strings (which have all been fixed) and this ticket (MC-262370) now concerns the untranslatable multiplayer strings.I've removed the "Ignoring status request" string from this ticket as it is now translatable in 1.20 Pre-release 1.
I have found one string in Multiplayer that is not translatable.
The tooltip says "Anonymous Player" when you cannot connect with the server because it has other version.
Found trying to connect a 1.19.4 client to a 1.20-pre7 server.
See attached screenshot.
The "Anonymous Player" string is indeed untranslatable, so I've added it to this ticket. The string is actually displayed when a user on the server has their "Allow Server Listings" option set to "ON" in their online settings.
The "(Unknown)" string has been removed from this report and is now being tracked at
MC-265151.
