Coauthors Day
January 10 · Level 4 · #1347 of 2238
Coauthors Day is a reminder that many ideas are born not alone but in arguments, swapped drafts and shared edits. It is a chance to thank the people you share the byline with on a book or a paper.
How it is celebrated: coauthors thank one another, talk about how to credit everyone's contribution fairly, and sit down together to reread joint work.
Science has a system called CRediT that describes 14 contributor roles, from conceiving the idea and analysing data to writing and editing the text.
