Repository metrics are context, not quality scores. Active installations measure adoption and can strongly reflect a plugin’s age and historical popularity. Ratings, recent updates and “Tested up to” metadata also do not guarantee modern code, error-free operation, security, feature completeness or suitability for a particular site.

WP PlugIndex currently records Authors as Taxonomy version 1.0.0 as active, updated 8y ago and tested up to WordPress 4.9.
Overview
About this plugin
Decouple authors from users. Instead of using users as authors use a special taxonomy for it.
The plugin gives a simple way to have “guest author”, user generated content, multiple authors,
or any other setting in which you might not want to give people access permissions to the admin
side of WordPress but still want to give credit to the author and have some way to aggregate
his/hers posts on the site.
You can combine this plugin with any other plugin which prevent user enumeration to prevent
user name leakage and
