Description
When adding a context during the voting process, if an incorrect URL is initially entered, the error message persists even after navigating back and entering a correct URL. This prevents users from proceeding, even with valid metadata input.
**Steps to Reproduce:**
1. Click on **“Vote”**
2. Add context
3. Choose **“Download and store data myself”**
4. Paste an **incorrect URL** (e.g., incorrect hash or url that returns text)
5. Error message **“Incorrect data format”** is shown
6. Click the **“Back”** button
7. Enter a **correct URL**
8. Error message **still shows “Incorrect data format”**
**Expected Behavior:**
After navigating back and entering a valid URL, the error message should clear, and the metadata should be re-evaluated correctly.
**Actual Behavior:**
The error message persists even after correcting the input, making it impossible to proceed with a valid URL.
