Hello Carlo,

Please see the track's description page. To do this, open up the target 
assembly in the main browser and click on the track name. This link 
points to the track controls (top of page) with the methods, sources, 
credits underneath.

Please feel free to contact the mailing list support team again if you 
would like more assistance.

Warm regards,

Jen
