17. Can I modify a page that has already been completed by other authors?

''Yes! The CCGA is a wiki-based platform with the intention that contributors can modify any page at any time if something is not accurate or new evidence and references would be beneficial to share. This will allow up-to-date accurate content to be available to the community. Primary authorship will typically be listed as those individuals that initially completed the page content, and inquiries can be made by [Mailto:CCGA@cancergenomics.org Email] if a subsequent user modifies the content and feels the effort put forth is of high enough significance to warrant listing in the authorship section.''
