As-is, everything seems to be fine. 🙂

Thank you guys for the inputs.
Note that a readme file is an assertive info document not a guideline. I will accept some of the suggestions made above.

For open source repositories, I have not seen what you mentioned. Can you show me other open source repos that have their README as you suggested?

I thought this point.
https://github.com/OpenGenus/cosmos this repo has a contributors list.

Every repository has a contributors list: https://github.com/TheAlgorithms/C-Plus-Plus/graphs/contributors
I doubt if we need to create yet another list , a wiki, etc. They don't really add to the repo value. The individual contributors names/github userid are provided within the C++ files themselves.
