watches are kind of an exception because of their really small screen, but they are already perfectly covered by the general size criterion, you do not need a special mobile device paragraph, which would also cover phones, tablets (and likely even laptops/notebooks), i.e. the majority of devices that people use to interact with OpenStreetMap based services. The guideline in its current state would be legitimating the widely diffused practice of mainly attributing to yourself and somewhere secondary (second page/splashscreen/etc) pro forma to OpenStreetMap. Many of the examples of insufficient attribution from the past years which have rightfully upset the contributors would be fine with the new guidelines. Attribution is essential for further growing our community, we should not make concessions that reduce its visibility. Cheers Martin
