 ## Run the verification
 
-The verification can be run for an entire import, or for each experiment in the import. It will generate a CSV report, one for each experiment.
+The verification can be run for all the experiments in the importer, or for one specific experiment in the importer. It will give the status of the import and generate a CSV report, one for each experiment.
