Add FAQ about how to find author info
Since less information is shown on an entry's index.html page than in the past a short FAQ entry about how to find the information seems like a good idea to have.

### FAQ 6.16 - How do I find more information about a winning author of an entry?

|

|

At the top of the index.html file of a winning entry with the author you want
|
||||
information on, you should see a section called `Author`. All you have to do is
|
||||
click on the author's name (it's a link) and it will take you to their
|
||||
information in the [authors.html](authors.html) page.
|
||||
|
||||
There you will find various information, sometimes just location (if that's
|
||||
known) and other times their mastodon handle (as a link), a link to their
|
||||
website (and sometimes an alt website), their GitHub handle (as a link) and a
|
||||
link to their `author.json` file (the link title is their name). That
|
||||
`author.json` file might have additional information. In all cases there is a
|
||||
link to each of their winning entries.
|
||||
|
||||
Of course if you know the author's name you can go directly to
|
||||
[authors.html](authors.html) and click on their surname's/last name's/second
|
||||
name's initial and then scroll down (if necessary) to the author in question.
