Thanks for sharing this, @dltj -- see below for one suggestion.

If we remove this here, I wonder if we should add it to languages/CreatorRoles/aliases.ini as Ill = ill (and also remove it from all of the language files with php $VUFIND_HOME/public/index.php language delete CreatorRoles::Ill).

Ah! I didn't know about that alias file. I pushed a commit to add a line.
How are translations handled in general? Do I need to do something other than add the lines to en.ini?

Adding lines to en.ini is enough -- Lokalise will find the changes in GitHub and then when translators work on other languages, they'll be prompted to fill in missing translations.

But as noted earlier, in addition to adding the alias, you should also delete the duplicate definition from all of the language files using the tool I mentioned. If that's not working right, maybe I mistyped something; let me know if you need me to dig deeper!
