(I’m refreshing this idea to see if there is any traction)
I’d like to suggest an extension to the Author schema to include additional fields such as:
- Type (both Person and Organization)
- Bio
- Title
- Image
- Description
- Occupation
- Social Links
- SameAs Links (e.g., links to other professional/authoritative profiles or trusted sources)
- Affiliation
- Credentials
…and other relevant schema properties.
In today’s connected and social-first world, authorship is not just about content—it’s about visibility and credibility. By expanding the schema, Ghost can give authors the tools to establish their authority, trust, and engagement with readers.
