I think it's fine to add to the HTML as long as you add it as part of the Django template comment at the top and not in the actual text that gets rendered.

Looking over the license definitions they look fine, except the migrations - if these are considered derived from Django (which is fine) then they should all be BSD-3-Clause rather than some being MIT. It looks like some of the earlier ones don't have a "generated by django" comment, but they were all initially generated with ./manage.py makemigrations; some then had additional code added to them.

Cheers
Paul
