Revisiting already classified picture

I have labelled something as an artefact, but how do I revisit it to perhaps change it to asteroid? I am not sure about it, but this picture shows something odd at about 10 o'clock. It looks like movement - sort of. It may be better if I reclassified it as asteroid rather than artefact, then someone else can take a look at it.

That is interesting - as washed out as this is (due to the star bleed) - that looks like a bad column is being moved over the image of the star. If you look, the decrease in brightness is very sharp - a single line. Normally the background would be bright enough that the line was obvious - but here's an example where it isn't.
Nice find!

in response to Drabber's comment.
The thing at 10 o'clock is caused by "telephone wires". Vertical lines that jump horizontally, see http://youtu.be/qtQ7w-d9BhU?t=31m50s for an example. In this set they are hardly visible because of under exposure caused by the light flood of the star bleed.
