Thank you, Stéphane!
I have added the following comments to the yml file to help you and other translators:
- en: 'Search' # Search box field label
- en: 'Contributor:' # gender-neutral, singular -- if not in your language, use appropriate alternative, such as plural or 'Contribution'
- en: 'Reviewer' #gender-neutral, singular -- if not in your language, use appropriate alternative, such as plural
- en: 'Translator:' # gender-neutral, singular -- if not in your language, use appropriate alternative, such as plural or 'Translation'
Feel free to edit the file from:

Best,
~Shawn
