Error in a record, why can't I edit it?

In the Migration • Scandinavia, Mission Emigration Records, 1852-1920 for Knud Emmertsen, his birthplace is displayed as Farnup, Denmark, which is not correct.

He was actually born March 24th 1829, in Fårup [Faarup] sogn (parish), Nørhald herred (district), Randers amt (county) in Denmark.

I hoped to be able to correct this, but I am not allowed to do so.

Kind regards

Keld Pedersen
