Fail to detect CC-BY-SA-4.0 license

I note some famous licenses can be detected. Their names are showed directly in the bar rightside. But for CC-BY-SA-4.0, which is common for non-software works, it just says "View license". I hope the detection can support CC licenses and more.

Any update? As Creative Commons Public Licenses are so famous, I think GitHub has no reason to fail to recognize them.

I also have this problem.
I refer to the GitHub blog:
https://github.blog/changelog/2022-05-26-easily-discover-and-navigate-to-multiple-licenses-in-repositories/
Github gives the example of MIT and CC-BY
These are displayed as "CC-BY-4.0, MIT licenses found"
This is NOT what happens in my repo. I made repeated efforts to make these 2 licenses clear
But the display I get is "Unknown and 2 other licenses found"
An unhelpful result possibly giving a negative impression of my repo.

Please give us a way of manually editing this display because the auto detector does not work.
