Couldn't find the answer in the FAQ and the search gave a time out.

I've contributed a profile but there were some little mistakes in the overview.

What's the way to correct them. Now I've clicked the withdraw button (maybe not necessary) and contribute the profile again.

The easiest way to correct an incorrect contribution:

Correct the errors locally and then resubmit.
Provided your "incorrect" submission is still pending this resubmitting will overwrite your older submission. Only the contribution notes remain.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

Yes you can withdraw and then re-contribute. Or you can just re-contribute. The second contribution will just overwrite your first one.

That is how you correct them.  You can't edit it once submitted without resubmitting.  Otherwise people who might have already voted wouldn't know of your edit and may want to change their vote because of it.

And you do not have to Withdraw first.  If you simply resubmit the prior contribution is nullified.  One person can only have one submission active on a profile at any time.
Bad movie?  You're soaking in it!
