The dump of "Mahjong (Japan).nes" on No-Intro is bad, as it lacked the header, so I hex-edited it to add the header from "Mario Bros. (World)" and it worked, so I decided to contribute it to No-Intro.

Your information.
The problem is that I don't have a real NES (since I live in Chile, in which consoles and games are too expensive).

Here at No-Intro historically we have a dat with NO header ROM info.
So please explain what did you meant to add a header?

Currently the dat doesn't have iNES header info - you have to get that elsewhere. This is the same for all NES ROMs.

iNES headers are not part of the data on a real NES cart, therefore they are not included in the No-Intro DAT data.
If whatever ROM archive you downloaded it from didn't add it, that's their problem, not No-Intro's.
That is essentially what I was told one time I got a ROM with an incorrect header.

Lol, take a ROM, add a header and submit it as new dump

adding a header from another random game isn't great either. While it would be nice to have another DAT for iNES headered NES games slapping a header on it from an unrelated game and calling it a day is not the way to do it
