How to contribute to Tweakers' pricewatch? (lemmy.ml)

Hi! I have a question on Tweakers, which many of you probably know about or use. I've been using it for years, including the pricewatch/wishlist functionality, but I've never found a way to contribute to its pricewatch functionality. Is anyone here doing that?

Specifically:

I'd like to be able to add or remove a tweakers<->external website association. Such as this: https://tweakers.net/pricewatch/1635184/varta-lcd-multi-charger+.html#section-prices The association with the amazon product is wrong here, but there's nothing I can do to fix that.
I'd like to be able to link already existing tweakers pages to new external shop pages.
Ideally also be able to add new items, etc.

It's probably possible, because if tweakers already has integration with a website for some product, then probably the same "price watch" functionality can be applied to other products within the same shop as well - assuming somebody links the correct products of course.

Thoughts?

Independence and integrity doesn't mean it can't be for-profit. Factorio is indie but they're not giving their games away for free. Newspaper journalists (redactie? Redaktion.. what's the English word) are supposed to be independent of e.g. the ads that are posted on the same page, and Tweakers at some point decided they want to act like this as well. Not that they have a rectification process or whatever, but besides (what I believe to be) honest mistakes they make a good attempt at journalistic integrity imo

I'd say the reviews are also worth taking a look at, but then I've never looked at anything else so I wouldn't know if Stiftung Warentest is maybe much better :D. If you ever take a look at Tweakers' reviews, let me know how it compares to them. I live in Germany so that description could be useful for me as well ^^
