Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. When there is custom imagery used in projects on the HOT Tasking Manager, the links to the server where the imagery is hosted will automatically be used as the source for the image when uploading data onto OpenStreetMap.

The content of the box with arrow, will be added as source information automatically on OpenStreetMap. image

As such that is correct, but we often have only temporarily access to custom imagery, which means that that imagery will as well only temporarily be hosted via the link. Which means that after some time the imagery is not available anymore via the link and the link will lead to nowhere. You can see that in this example: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/129615916#map=19/7.90099/8.58899

Describe the solution you'd like Having a way as a project manager to add manually source information via the HOT TM would be great. Maybe there could be a way to add the server link to the imagery and than maybe a box with hand written text that could replace that link when uploading data to OSM?

This is an example of how an imagery provider asks us to refer to them: © Airbus DS (2023), provided by the Airbus Foundation Thus ideally this would appear when uploading data onto OpenStreetMap instead of the link to the server.

And as well having the possibility to integrate the imagery date would be great as well!

Describe alternatives you've considered Currently we are asking people to manually change the link to the relevant source information, but we have not seen that working very well. You can see in this changeset how it is done well: https://www.openstreetmap.org/changeset/140551912

Would love to have this feature as well. I was just about to create a ticket. 👍
