Sometimes, I co-author posts with my colleagues, collaboratively writing a draft, and then one of us posts it on Discourse. It would be great if there would be a way to attribute these posts to multiple authors, so that they share the likes received, can all edit the post, etc.

Posts are owned by just one person & there’s little way to change that.

@mention each author in the message itself.

Not much way to solve that.

All you could do is make it a wiki, but then others might also edit the post.
