[Taxacom] Wikispecies issue

I found information about the publications of an author on Wikispecies 
just now. While I was there ut of curiosity I searched for my name (as I 
remembered that I had replied to a post on Taxacom a few years ago 
asking authors to send in their information) and found a page had been 
created for me:
https://species.wikimedia.org/wiki/Adam_M._Cotton

However, according to the page I live in China:

"College of Life Sciences, Peking University, Beijing, 100871, China"


I have never been to China in my life, I live in Chiang Mai, Thailand, 
and my address is given on my papers.

I looked for some way to send an e-mail to Wikispecies, but couldn't 
find a contact link, and I really do not have either the time or 
inclination to register in order to try to change the page myself (even 
if I knew how to edit a webpage). I noticed there are 'edit' links for 
publications, but not my supposed address (which makes sense I guess).

I would appreciate it if the editors can change my address to "Chiang 
Mai, Thailand", as the stated address is absolutely incorrect.

Please can someone here pass this e-mail on to the relevant people, 
thank you.

Adam.
