Several README.md submissions display the wrong author

[tripleee]

Description

README.md should display the author of the project, not the author of the README.

Type of issue

• Feature (New Script)
• Bug
• Documentation

Checklist:

• I have read the project guidelines.
• I have checked all the existing projects, before submitting a new project issue.
• I have checked previous issues to avoid duplicates.
• This issue will be meaningful for the project.

#382 now fixes this for Store_emails_in_csv but the whole list of project authors should be reviewed against the README files in each.

Why was this closed? Many of these indicate the wrong author, compared to what's already listed in the main project README.

I could go on but this should hopefully at least convince you that this is not yet fixed.

Yeah I know it is not fixed, but the thing is some of the people didn't mention their names when they added the scripts/projects and after that, some people who created readme files for the projects added their names as author instead of the original project creators , so this author area is a bit messy.

[AdityaJ7]

I can reopen this issue for you if you want to fix these names but most of them won't match the readme-files because earlier this repo didn't have readme files with individual scripts.

[tripleee]

Please do. I don't know when I can get to it, but to me, closing indicates either that there is no intent to fix the problem (in which case tag as wontfix) or that it was fixed already. Or that the problem doesn't exist.
