The data team will conduct basic information verification and structured organization for each included project, including dimensions such as team background; information modification submissions must be accompanied by verifiable source links, and updates will only be made after verification.
Once the claim is approved, you can log in to the project information management backend to submit information updates and correction requests (such as financing, team, link changes) at any time.
