How to correct my own error

Family Search emailed me a link to a possible ancestor. Apart from the name being the same everything else was wrong, so I pressed 'dismiss' and explained why. Unfortunately I distinguished myself by putting a basic error in my 'correction'. I have gone back to the name but cannot find any way to access my correction so that I can put the record straight. Is there any way that I can do this?

    As far as I know, dismissal reasons cannot be edited. They are also Really Hard to find, buried deep in a profile's Change Log -- which in this case has the happy side effect of allowing you to just ignore your error: nobody will ever see it.
