What needs to be updated? I think there needs to more detail here, ie add your
name etc.

What about:

Check the top-level :file:`COPYING` file. If you are a new copyright holder, then add yourself to the top of the list. If your last year of a substantial contribution changed, then please update your copyright line.

+    /* Definitions, etc. */

I think "<FIRST YEAR>", "<LAST YEAR>" and "<COPYRIGHT HOLDER>" need to be
explained. For example "Use your real name, that is your legal name." or "Use a
name and/or email address" or something else.

This is explained in the "Copyright and License Comment Block" section. Should I reference this section? For example:

For the <FIRST YEAR>, <LAST YEAR>, and <COPYRIGHT HOLDER> placeholders see :ref:`FileHeaderCopyright`.
