 * This request specifies the bot account as the operator. A bot may not operate itself; please update the "Operator" field to indicate the account of the human running this bot. AnomieBOT ⚡ 15:45, 17 February 2019 (UTC)
 * This bot has edited its own BRFA page. Bot policy states that the bot account is only for edits on approved tasks or trials approved by BAG; the operator must log into their normal account to make any non-bot edits. AnomieBOT ⚡ 16:52, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

 * None of those edits were correct. editor1 should not contain the name of more than one editor. See my corrections: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5. —&thinsp;JJMC89&thinsp; (T·C) 18:26, 17 March 2019 (UTC)

Sorry for the errors caused. Actually I was not aware of the fact that changing the parameter from |editors= to |editor1= leads to another maintenance category. Now, since it requires the use of regex, I am removing my request.Adithyak1997 (talk) 18:24, 17 March 2019 (UTC)
