I'll wait for Rafael to complete the translation of the website before submitting a patch.
In case he finds other issues...

Issue 1) Freedom page links kernel.org as GNU/Linux

In the below paragraph of http://lilypond.org/freedom.html

" “Gift culture”: the Free Software movement has created many great

software projects, such as GNU/Linux, Mozilla Firefox, and Battle for
Wesnoth. Having benefitted from these projects, some developers want
to “give back” to the community. "

"GNU/Linux" is a link to http://kernel.org, which is not correct
because GNU is the system and Linux is the kernel (more info[1]). How
about have "GNU" as a link to http://www.gnu.org and "Linux" as a link
to http://kernel.org?

[1] https://www.gnu.org/gnu/linux-and-gnu.html

I agree that the link should be changed.

However, GNU is already linked in that page.
kernel.org is a "technical" page.

I'd rather link to a page which is about GNU/Linux distros. As LilyPond is a GNU project, I would use GNU/Linux.

    Issue 2) Productions page
    http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-lilypond/2018-07/msg00089.html

    (For both items below, the related source file is: web/introduction.itexi)

    1- In this page there is the following snippet of paragraph:

    "He has also worked on the score and parts for an arrangement of
    Moussurgsky’s Boris Godounov for wind quartet"

    On the other side, a few paragraphs below we find:

    "Mussorgsky’s Pictures at an exhibition[...]"

    Searching the web, I found "Mussorgsky" and "Godunov" (without 'o'
    from 'ou') in pages like e.g. Wikipedia[1], but found no occurrence
    "Moussurgsky" and "Godounov". So, just checking: is the spelling
    correct?

    [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modest_Mussorgsky

    2- There is the following the comment in the source file web/introduction.itexi:

    @c TRANSLATORS, so far it's mostly from
    @c http://lilypond.org/web/switch/testimonials

    I notice this link isn't valid, maybe it should be replaced with
    http://lilypond.org/productions.html

    Typos

    1. knowlegde --> knowledge

    In the paragraph:

    The Belgian newspaper De Standaard investigates what drives Free
    Software authors in an article titled Delen van KENNIS zonder
    WINSTBEJAG (Non-profit sharing of knowlegde) in its ‘DS2 bijlage’.
    LilyPond is used as an example and the article is interspersed with
    quotes from an email interview with Jan Nieuwenhuizen. This marks
    LilyPond’s first appearance in mainstream printed press.

    "knowlegde" should be "knowledge" ('d' and 'g' swapped)

    $ git grep knowlegde
    Documentation/web/introduction.itexi:knowlegde) in its @q{DS2 bijlage}. LilyPond is used as an example
    Documentation/web/news-old.itexi:knowlegde) using LilyPond as an example.  This marks
    Documentation/zh/web/introduction.itexi:knowlegde) in its @q{DS2 bijlage}.  LilyPond is used as an example
    
    1. built in --> built-in

    In the description paragraph for Frescobaldi:

    Frescobaldi is a lightweight, yet powerful, music and text editor with
    many features added and enhanced particularly for LilyPond. Major
    features include point-and-click links between the code and music
    views, detailed score wizards, built in LilyPond documentation
    browser, syntax highlighting and automatic completion. Frescobaldi is
    written in Python, with PyQt4 for its user interface, and will run on
    all major operating systems (GNU/Linux, Mac OS X and Windows).

    The "built in LilyPond documentation browser" should be "built-in
    LilyPond documentation browser" (hyphen added)
