Initial Description 
I have to migrate from my old Drupal 5 site, that had multiple authors assigned to one node, and this is the solution for __Drupal 7__.    
First of all you will need to download [__References__](http://drupal.org/project/references) module  and enable __User Reference__.  
Then go to your module (*sites\all\modules\\references\\*) and edit file *user\_reference\user\_reference.module* at line number __481__ as it has an error.    
Change line: *$query->condition($user\_uid\_alias, $ids, 'IN', $ids);*      
to this: *$query->condition("u.$user\_uid\_alias", $ids, 'IN', $ids);*      
Now go to your theme, and edit __template.php__ file adding this lines.
