66-68: Prefer .Param and normalize/expand to support multiple authors and defaultsFor better robustness and consistency with how meta fields above use filters:
- Use .Param "author" to leverage Hugo’s cascading params (section/site defaults).
- Pipe through plainify to strip accidental markup and normalize whitespace.
- Optionally support plural authors front matter (authors: [...]) and restrict to .IsPage.
- Optionally accept either Section or Type equal to "blog" to avoid organization coupling.
Suggested change:
- {{ if and (eq .Section "blog") (.Params.author) }} - <meta name="author" content="{{ .Params.author }}" /> - {{ end }} + {{ if and .IsPage (or (eq .Section "blog") (eq .Type "blog")) }} + {{ with .Params.authors }} + <meta name="author" content="{{ delimit . ", " | plainify }}" /> + {{ else }} + {{ with .Param "author" }} + <meta name="author" content="{{ . | plainify }}" /> + {{ end }} + {{ end }} + {{ end }}

66-68: LGTM: Conditional author meta tag is safe and scoped to blog pages
- The guard ensures no effect on non-blog pages and skips when author is empty.
- Placement before og:url is fine and won’t interfere with existing tags.

Add the author meta tags for blog articles. Don't think it helps a lot but I thought of this as I saw it on news/article websites
