The Contributor Roles Taxonomy (CRediT) uses 14 standard roles to specify scholarly contributions to research publications. CRediT has been adopted by hundreds of journals and integrated into journal submission workflows. In 2022, CRediT was formalized as a standard by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the National Information Standards Organization (NISO), providing a sustained support system and custodianship. Subsequently, forming the CRediT Standing Committee aimed to ensure inclusive and transparent evolution and enhance understanding and adoption of CRediT in the research community. This paper outlines the CRediT Standing Committee's ongoing strategies to support uptake and reduce ambiguity and confusion when using roles. These strategies include developing user instructions to provide guidance on how to use CRediT, creating persona profiles to improve understanding of existing roles and designing badges for each role to make them more memorable. These resources will address challenges reported by the scholarly community or identified by the CRediT Standing Committee and will be shared openly upon completion.
