    confirmed exoplanets are referenced at nasa's exoplanet archives - https://exoplanetarchive.ipac.caltech.edu/cgi-bin/TblView/nph-tblView?app=ExoTbls&config=planets, you can check it out here, you'll have to cross reference these with any curves here in planethunters curves to see if there confirmed. As far as I know that's the only way to know if a light-curves has been confirmed with planet discoveries.
