No, ways easier: the About->Credits->Translation content is stored in
msgid "translator-credits".
See https://wiki.gnucash.org/wiki/Translation#Adjust_special_messages 
and as example
https://hosted.weblate.org/browse/gnucash/gnucash/de/?q=translator-credit&sort_by=priority%2C-position&checksum=

Annual task for translators: update the last year of your activity. 
Ideally this should be done before the first release in a new year.

Weblate stores all contributors in the file header as comment. The list 
should appear in reverse order (recent first) in msgid 
"translator-credits". For privacy reasons without individual email 
addresses, but another contact address.

I don't know if we really want all translators of all languages in the 
AUTHORS file.
