For instance, https://translationproject.org/PO-files/fr/dfarc-3.14.fr.po is
from a project that doesn't require copyright assignment to the FSF, yet it is
copyright the FSF only (and for only 2008 and 2009, then nothing even though
there are more recent changes).

In https://translationproject.org/PO-files/es/dfarc-3.14.es.po, the copyright
is associated with the first author, the others are simply listed.

Since we never required copyright to be assigned to the FSF, I think it stays
with the individual authors. Is that correct? In that case, would adding
"Copyright" before each author be a good solution?

Or maybe better, since weblate is using the same template as the TP (using the
same copyright as the pot file, then listing individual authors):

Copyright (c) YEAR the authors of guix (msgids) and the authors of this file
(listed below).

Sure. The file originally comes from https://www.contributor-covenant.org.
I've added a license notice.
