You probably need to add 3 capabilities:
- edit_published_posts
- publish_posts
- delete_published_posts
but at the very least, you need to add publish_posts
as that is the capability WordPress uses to determine what users are shown in Authors drop-down.
Note: Changing capabilities is stored in the database so the recommendation is to modify these values via a plugin and only when the plugin is activated or deactivated rather than on every request.
