Question regarding .AFF in en_GB dictionary

Hello!

I was wondering if I should write in the en_GB .AFF the source of the 
words since I embraced the project a year ago:

*# Affix file for British English MySpell dictionary**
**# Also suitable as basis for Commonwealth and European English.**
**# Built from scratch for MySpell. Released under LGPL.**
**#**
# Source of wordlist (Marco Pinto):
# 1) Oxford Dictionaries;
# 2) Collins Dictionary;
# 3) Macmillan Dictionary;
# 4) Wiktionary (used with caution);
# 5) Wikipedia (used with caution);
# 6) Physical dictionaries.
#
**# David Bartlett, Andrew Brown,**
**# Kevin Atkinson, Marco A.G.Pinto.**
**# R 2.21, 2015-02-XX*


Thanks for your time!

Kind regards,
        >Marco A.G.Pinto

I see no objection to listing the sources consulted - it is good academic practice in any case.

Would it be better / correct to say that these were the sources that you
used to verify the spelling of the words you included in the dictionary
