I have couple open source NPM packages I develop together with other developers. In some of this packages I have less than 50% contributions in code. But I listed as contributor on NPM, just because I found this packages and did not update contributors list a long time.

So definitions does not matter when stats that author refers, does not include a developers who own over 50% code in repo, but includes me as contributor.

That's widely known problem of programmers to believe that world is perfect and all data are always actual. Actually it won't.
