Authorship Daily Challenge – Day 5
Number crunching.
Ing developed an authorship metric based on the ICMJE criteria and a survey of members of the World Association of Medical Editors (WAME), and he provided a free downloadable calculator.

The authorship contribution calculator is available at http://ow.ly/gLku50JsRIY.
To use this, download it as an Excel file, enable editing, and edit the values in column H to calculate the authorship score and whether the author meets the ICMJE criteria.
