    @anismonstera Allthough I can't read Russian, I am able to edit the person with that PID. Perhaps just a temporary glitch?

    Likewise here, no problem at all with editing and no read only banner:

    May be occasional trouble loading the page completely or temporary server glitch or some hiccup in the internet. I don't know how the profile pages load but there may be components that are always loaded then removed when not needed and if the page does not load completely those components may not be removed.

    I notice that you made some edits on that profile back in May. Are you possibly in a different location (not at home, traveling) now than when you made those edits? There are some locations where FamilySearch cannot allow full access to records/profiles for a variety of reasons.

    If not, then try clearing your FamilySearch cookies. https://www.familysearch.org/cookies
