Translating CRediT for increased accessibility and adoption

To translate the Contributor Roles Taxonomy (CRediT) into other languages, we have organized a hackathon as part of the online Big Team Science conference. Please join us! Here are the details:

Time: 24 October, 12pm London / 7am NYC / 1pm Budapest / 10pm Sydney time converter

To improve recognition of those who contribute to research, the CRediT taxonomy has been adopted by hundreds of scientific journals that publish in English. However, its use for rewarding researchers worldwide is limited by the need for translations into other languages. During this hackathon, Translating CRediT for increased accessibility and adoption, we will check and refine an existing German translation and follow steps to make it more official and also work on languages to be determined by those who attend. The hackathon is part of the online Big Team Science conference (register here), all welcome!

Here is the associated github repository which will hold the translations.
