Observed this on Wiktionary while using Chrome, but this is likely a generic problem.
Pasting text sometimes (not every time) causes text below the paste to move one line up, consuming the blank line below the paste (when there is one).
This is quite unconventional behavior, should never happen, and also requires an additional action to correct (usually adding the space back).
Hi @Yurivict. For future reference, please associate at least one project with a task. See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_report_a_bug - thanks!
Is this about classic editing? Is this about VisualEditor? Is this about pasting plain text or formatted text? From where is the text pasted?
This needs better steps to reproduce. :-/
Wiktionary doesn't have VE (except for French and Swedish, and even then only as opt-in), so I'd assume it's WikiEditor?
Classic editor, not Visual, and chrome browser.
I will post the test case when I encounter this again. But I saw this many times.
How to reproduce:
I think the triggering factor is the *styled* text being pasted.

If you see that this has been fixed in the newer version then please close it. I don't have 46 available yet.
I see something similar in Chrome 49.0.2623.54 beta (64-bit).
It indeed seems that if you paste rich text/html into a plain text textbook that it consumes one too many new lines. That's a clear upstream issue however, and not something that I think we should invest a lot of time into. It's just a minor thing. Anyone willing to report this upstream in Chrome is more than welcome of course.
