Authorship and giving credit #12

Open Chovin opened 7 years ago

I think we should keep track of who made what cog within the info.json as well as at the top of the actual .py file itself. That way it's easy to see who to address issues to and who to ask for #support/contribution related questions.

You should also be praised for your work :smile:

For the same reasons, the people that contribute to the cog should not be refused credit.

If we want to follow a format, we could do something along the lines of...

cog.py

import here

"""
Author: Centipeda
Contributors: xell0s, Gabe
"""

info.json

"author" : "Centipeda, xell0s, Gabe"

*Notice, users will see contents of info.json using !cog info <repo> <cog> so users mentioned there may be contacted for support questions. It should be the contributor's decision if they would like to be credited
