The LWG has added a work item for 2019 to update the guidance on attribution. The major part of the existing texts were written in the ramp up to the licence change in 2012 and are now over 6 years old.
Lots of things have changed massively since then, be it the scope of OSM usage, to what kind of devices are used by the majority of users and it is obviously high time for some updates. And we will include guidance that we've previously given, but which may not be really documented anywhere. For example that in many circumstances "click to hide" is acceptable, but not "click to show". So that there is no confusion about this, any such guidance will never be an exhaustive list of all what is compliant with the requirement of our licence (for Produced Works), just a list of what we have deemed to fulfill the terms and can safely be used: However, if you Publicly Use a Produced Work, You must include a notice associated with the Produced Work reasonably calculated to make any Person that uses,views, accesses, interacts with, or is otherwise exposed to the Produced Work aware that Content was obtained from the Database, Derivative Database, or the Database as part of a Collective Database, and that it is available under this License.
