> is there anything we should add in terms of credits for SVWD03?
Previously I linked from https://map.atownsend.org.uk/vector/index_svwd03.html to:
1) MapLibre: https://maplibre.org/
2) An "About" page: https://map.atownsend.org.uk/vector/About_svwd03.html (which was broken following a server move until just now)
3) https://www.openstreetmap.org/copyright
The "About" page credits:
1) The [Shortbread](https://shortbread-tiles.org/) vector tile schema.
2) The [OSMF minutely updated vector tiles demo](https://community.openstreetmap.org/t/minutely-updated-vector-tiles-demo/110121).
3) Cartography is based on [this style](https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/SomeoneElse-vector-extract/blob/main/resources/README_sve01.md), in turn based on [this](https://map.atownsend.org.uk/maps/map/map.html) which in turn was developed from that found in [OSM Carto](https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OpenStreetMap_Carto#Forks_and_independent_deployments) circa 2014, based in turn on the “[Mapnik style](https://github.com/openstreetmap/mapnik-stylesheets)” from considerably earlier.
4) The fonts used are from [Klokantech](https://github.com/klokantech/klokantech-gl-fonts), in turn based on Google’s [noto](https://fonts.google.com/noto).
Of those 4, I guess (1) and (2) you can make a decision on, and (4) may not be true because I guess you're using different fonts here. Re (3) it's worth mentioning the lineage - some icons are directly carried over from older OSM Carto and some of the cartography is derived from that (which in turn is derived from older osm.org styles). Perhaps just link to https://map.atownsend.org.uk/vector/About_svwd03.html or the source for that https://github.com/SomeoneElseOSM/SomeoneElse-vector-web-display/blob/main/resources/About_svwd03.md ?
