This is an enumeration used in Stencila Schema for controlled author contribution roles.

It exists so authorship in Stencila documents can be represented consistently across formats, user interfaces, and provenance workflows. Rather than using arbitrary free text, the enumeration gives a stable vocabulary for common contribution roles.

The enumeration combines two vocabularies: Stencila's own authoring and AI-workflow roles (e.g. Writer, Generator, Verifier), and the fourteen roles of the Contributor Roles Taxonomy (CRediT), ANSI/NISO Z39.104-2022 (e.g. Conceptualization, WritingOriginalDraft). The CRediT variants have credit: ids that map to the canonical role URIs so that scholarly contribution roles can be preserved across document formats such as JATS and linked-data workflows.

See AuthorRole.roleName for the property that uses this enumeration.

`Accepter`	The author, usually a `Person`, accepted the content, usually written by another `Person` or `SoftwareApplication`.
`Instructor`	The author, usually a `Person`, instructed another author, usually a `SoftwareApplication`, to create content.
`Prompter`	The author, usually a `SoftwareApplication`, prompted another author, also usually a `SoftwareApplication`, to generate content.
`Router`	The author, usually a `SoftwareApplication`, routed an instruction to another author, also usually a `SoftwareApplication`, to generate content.

`Visualization`	Preparation, creation and/or presentation of the published work, specifically visualization/data presentation.
`WritingOriginalDraft`	Preparation, creation and/or presentation of the published work, specifically writing the initial draft (including substantive translation).
`WritingReviewEditing`	Preparation, creation and/or presentation of the published work by those from the original research group, specifically critical review, commentary or revision – including pre- or post-publication stages.
