- Hello @Spoorthi Rao
- Thank you for reporting this.
- After investigation, the activation of Edit check (see here how it looks) was accurate.
- It also appears that the user you mentioned would have had changed the article no matter what. When the request to add a reference was shown, the added a random website instead of declining the request.
- Hope this helps; if you have any question, let me know! Trizek_(WMF) (talk) 14:08, 2 October 2024 (UTC)
