We also have a list of proper translations of “free software” into various languages.

You can see the wrong Japanese translations of “Free” in F-Droid app v1.9. The mistakes will be fixed v1.10, but possibly reverted someday because the term “Free Software” is not so famous.
In some source information, we could include the link of FSF’s glossary and recommend to add the terms to Weblate’s glossary.

Great idea! If you can export the FSF glossary, then Weblate supports importing them. Translating using Weblate - Weblate 5.1.1 documentation
