How to change the original author of a page?

[John McGehee]

As an administrator, I created a hierarchy of pages for some new documentation.  Then I asked my colleagues to fill in the pages.

They did all the work, yet the page still displays my name as the author.  This is unfair.  How do I change the original author to another user?

that's not an answer for 2021 in any case, there is range of replies with suggestions which have replies that say don't work, out of date etc. I have read through it all and I am none the wiser.
