[DOC] Authors page should reflect more than git commit contributions
See original GitHub issueBrief Description of Fix
Currently, the docs only link to code contributions that involve a git commit
. This does not reflect the contributions made by others to the project, such as talks, helping with sprints, social media, and more.
I would like to propose a change, such that now the docs includes at least code sprint contributions. For example, @jk3587 and @sallyhong helped with issues and guiding others at the last sprint at SciPy 2019, @loganthomas and @jekwatt helped others with git
at SciPy and PyCon respectively.

I think bullet points indicating non-git-commit contributions would be a way out.
Yes, indeed, thanks for pointing this out, @hectormz!
