Content
## # author:
Lists one or more authors for a source file.
* Should typically just be a name `Susan Examplary`
* Or a comma-separated list of authors.
URLs or email addresses are best listed behind author names instead:
# author: Susan (http://example.org/), Miriam <miri@example.org>
Having separate `author-url:` and `author-email:` fields does not really help anywhere. Typically authorship is just shown once during plugin installation. And having a mini parser/renderer there is just less effort than maintaining two PMD fields.
(This is also advised because of Wordpress´ abhorrent "Author URI:" field → asking for an "URI:" but crapping out on urn:, data:, mailto: values.)
