Description
Discussed with @inglesp and it would be good if we can improve OpenCodelists metadata. The specific use case is for interaction with referencing software (paperpile being the DataLab tool of choice) particularly authorship. Below is screenshot of current import. Ideally like to add
- website name
- authorship - see #9 as well for what could/should be included
- Publication date or perhaps version

Research direction
No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing the current OpenCodelists metadata and the referencing-software import shown in the issue, then read issue #9 for authorship requirements. Done means the metadata includes a website name, authorship, and either a publication date or version suitable for referencing software.
