FAQ Entry #454

This is a respond to a previously asked question about the A' Design Award and Competition. The full list of frequently asked questions can be accessed here.

#454: I am a team member to a project, my name is written wrong on the credits, can you update?

Sorry, we cannot update your name. In the past we had some cases where people who were not actual team members to projects had names modified or updated in a way that created problems, after these incidents, we have implement a policy that only allows the owner of the profiles to update any names. Furthermore, we also had cases where people who were not part of a team wanted to have their names listed for a project to get academic credits, additional publicity and business leads, and some profile owners were adding their friends just for this reason, to prevent this we lock the designs after results announcement, and the owner of the profile cannot change the names without requesting a design unlock service. In any case please contact the profile owner to request name update service and we will proceed that way.
