| This message comes to inform you that I slipped up with regards to the topic ban. During the course of visiting the ] page, I noticed there was no date for the lede image and then (as a matter of habit) edited the infobox to reflect that the photo depicted Tikhonov in 1985. Almost immediately afterward, it occurred to me that such an edit was in violation of the topic ban and I promptly reverted said edit. You'll find that the timestamp of such edits reflects this. | |||
| Everything I have just said to you is 100% true and is not intended to justify a calculated attempt to bypass the topic ban that was recently opposed. | |||

| ::No, you should be able to contribute at ] so long as you stay away from mentioning the infobox. I notice that you just self-reverted your change to the first sentence of the article. That seems wise. Not because of your topic ban but because such a change would be a magnet for edit wars. ] (]) 03:07, 24 October 2024 (UTC) | |||

| Hello, | |||

We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this ''''''. | |||
| You do not have to be an Administrator to participate. | |||
| The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its ] and view its ] . | |||

| == Query about outcome of edit warring report == | |||
| Hello, Thank you for looking into the report I made about user 'Zombie girl509' reverting an edit made to Melissa McBride's Misplaced Pages page. | |||
| Please can I ask why I am receiving a warning? I cited reliable sources to prove that the information I edited is accurate, and I provided explanations for this edit. Zombie girl509 has been reverting this with no explanation as to why, even after I reached out to communicate about it. I have been trying to provide accurate information while it seems to me that Zombie girl509 has been reverting this with malicious intent. I reached out on Zombie girl509's 'Talk' page and I posted on the article talk page about the edit, but I received no response. If there's something else I should have done, please let me know. ] (]) 16:40, 29 October 2024 (UTC) | |||

Update regarding Topic-Ban Observance
I once again momentarily forgot about my lede image ban and reverted a change to a picture I had uploaded as the lede image for Hideki Tojo. It literally occurred to me at the last moment before making said revert that what I was about to do might violate my topic ban. However, by the time it fully registered, the change had already been made. I have since reverted said change. While I am inclined to ask you to show leniency, I realize I asked you to dismiss a similar occurence around a month ago so I will leave it to your discretion regarding whether further sanctions are warranted.
