tekijäluettelossa

Tekijäluettelossa is a Finnish term that translates to "in the list of authors" or "among the authors" in English. It refers to a situation where an individual is included in the recognized list of contributors or authors of a work. This can apply to various forms of creative or intellectual output, such as books, scientific papers, software projects, or even artistic collaborations.

Being listed as a tekijä in a tekijäluettelossa signifies that the person has made a significant contribution to the creation of the work. The nature and extent of this contribution can vary widely. It might involve research, writing, editing, design, programming, or any other activity deemed essential to the final product. The specific criteria for inclusion in a tekijäluettelossa are often determined by the norms of the field or the specific project's guidelines.

In academic and scientific contexts, the tekijäluettelossa, often referred to as the author list or byline, is particularly important. It not only acknowledges contributions but also determines credit, responsibility, and often, the impact on an individual's career. The order of authors can also carry meaning, with the first author typically having made the most substantial contribution and the last author often being the senior researcher or principal investigator.

Similarly, in software development, a tekijäluettelossa might be found in documentation or within the code itself, listing the individuals who developed and maintained the software. In creative fields, such as filmmaking or music production, a tekijäluettelossa would acknowledge the various artists and technicians involved. The concept emphasizes shared creation and collective effort, ensuring that those who have brought a work into existence receive appropriate recognition.
