Description
Discussed in https://github.com/quarto-dev/quarto-cli/discussions/6223
Originally posted by drganghe July 15, 2023
Description
Papers with large number of authors are outsized when rendering in the same row with other items. Not sure if there is a way to control number of authors to display, for example, first (or other numbers of) authors, et al. It will still show the full list of authors when clicking the full article.
Notes
- Could off an option to only show single author + et. al.
- Could also consider providing templates with full author list to allow them to handle rendering (we currently convert the list to a string and provide that to template authors). Could provide utility function to process authors to string.

Research direction
Start with discussion 6223 and the author-list and template behavior described in the issue. Clarify whether the goal is a configurable truncated listing or template utilities; done means listings can limit displayed authors while the full article still shows the complete author list.
