Proper Rmarkdown YAML syntax of authors/institutes can perfectly output to word/html, such as:

---
title: "My title"
author: 
  - name: Katherine Lauck
    email: kslauck@ucdavis.edu
    institute: [davis, pi]
    correspondence: true
  - name: Sarah L. Carroll
    institute: colorado
  - name: Elly Mufliati
    institute: [untan, pi]
  - name: Sadtata Noor Adirahmanta
    institute: bksda
  - name: Novia Sagita
    institute: pi
  - name: Siti Kartikawati
    institute: [untan, pi]
  - name: Adam Miller
    institute: pi
institute:
  - davis: Graduate Group in Ecology, University of California, Davis
  - pi: Planet Indonesia
  - untan: Fakultas Kehutanan, Universitas Tanjungpura
  - bksda: Balai Konservasi Sumber Daya Alam
  - colorado: Graduate Degree Program in Ecology, Colorado State University
output: 
  word_document:
    pandoc_args:
      - '--lua-filter=scholarly-metadata.lua'
      - '--lua-filter=author-info-blocks.lua'
---

```{r setup, include=FALSE}
knitr::opts_chunk$set(echo = TRUE)

Abstract

blah blah


the above example file comes from [here](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/pandoc/lua-filters/master/author-info-blocks/author-info-blocks.lua)

the Lua filter files used here are from: 

[author-info-blocks.lua](https://github.com/pandoc/lua-filters/tree/master/author-info-blocks)
[scholarly-metadata.lua](https://github.com/pandoc/lua-filters/tree/master/scholarly-metadata)

Since the YAML syntax of authors/institutes in `rticles`  is different from the above example, author-info-blocks.lua and 
scholarly-metadata.lua are not working for `rticles`

title: Short Paper author:

name: Alice Anonymous email: alice@example.com affiliation: Some Institute of Technology footnote: 1
name: Bob Security email: bob@example.com affiliation: Another University
name: Cat Memes email: cat@example.com affiliation: Another University footnote: 2
name: Derek Zoolander email: derek@example.com affiliation: Some Institute of Technology footnote: 2 address:
code: Some Institute of Technology address: Department, Street, City, State, Zip
code: Another University address: Department, Street, City, State, Zip footnote:
code: 1 text: "Corresponding Author"
code: 2 text: "Equal contribution" ...


## Expected

With follow output syntax, the Rmarkdown can render to docx/html with authors/institutes
