Can't save data: Partner ... is currently banned.
Dear All,
I'm a relatively new user. Today I opened some records, saved data elsewhere, made highlights on images, and edited some data, usually typos, misreadings or wrong estimates of dates. At the last one, I couldn't save my modification. I got an error msg. like "Data is not saved, please reload". I reloaded and made the mod. again, I clicked Save and got the same result. Then I checked the console of my browser and found this:
{"errors":[{"code":108,"msg":"Partner … is currently banned."}]}
It was the response for the data pack my browser sent when I clicked Save. At the pos. of … I got a 4-digit ID, I guess that's my ID in the system.
What happened? Is there a limit to the number of documents I can open, data saves I can make, or stg?
Thanks for any info.

Hello @Gergerg.
There is no 4-digit number identifying users of FamilySearch as far as I know. FS has millions of users.
Could you clarify what change you were trying to make to what profile, index entry, etc., please? A screenshot would be useful (avoiding living person information).
Also, what browser are you using?

Hello MandyShaw1.
I made nothing special. The person who tagged a Registry page miscalculated the DOB of one of my long-dead relatives based on his date of death and age, and I wanted to change that. Link:
https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/1:1:QVB6-QQ62
These are death records from 1925 (i.e., there's no chance of any living person being on the list).
If I try to modify the estimated year of birth I still get the error message:
The strangest thing is that I can modify anything else but not the est. YOB. I'm banned from doing that.
The response from the server: {"errors":[{"code":108,"msg":"Partner 1398 is currently banned."}]}
I run the latest Chrome on up-to-date Win 11 Pro for Workstations.
Thanks for any help!

It seems the poster is editing record indexes, not the FamilySearch Family Tree.
@Péter3183 @Gergerg Have you created 2 usernames here in the Community? That will be confusing for you and for us.
Partner in this case may refer to the record custodian. The term partner is used in some instances to refer to other websites or repositories holding the record.
And banned may simply mean there is communication difficulty between the system of the partner and FamilySearch.
You might try using a different browser or clearing your FamilySearch cookies in your preferred browser.

Or, given that one specific metadata item seems to be blocked, the agreement between the record custodian and FS does not support FS-side user editing of that item.
The error message is probably a generic one, so the 'try again later' bit may or may not apply.

I am not sure there's anything further that can be done to help you here, but flagging @Ashlee C. in case there is.
Be aware that many Records have index metadata that is incorrect in some way, for many, many reasons, and that the metadata is not intended to be a transcript, merely a search aid.

Here's the underlying Persona data in case it helps at all:

You will see that the underlying data has two different values for PR_BIR_YEAR_EST, both of which appear on the FS Record display, though you need to hit the little down arrow to see the 1924.
I don't fully understand the JSON structure re these birth dates, but I think the 1925 is set as the birth "date" while 1924 is just one of potentially multiple birth "altDates".
