Hi @Leela52452, thanks for taking the time to report this and welcome to Wikimedia Phabricator!
Could you please follow https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/How_to_report_a_bug and provide a link to the web page where the problem can be seen?

for some reason, wikilink given in description not showing ;)

reference 2 on https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/It_(novel)

the issue seems to be not limited to a single page.
pattern :
suppose article has 5 reference.
tap reference 4 w/o editing mode.
tap reference 4 in edit mode, it will show reference 3 but not reference 4.

for some reason, wikilink given in description not showing ;)

That is because there is no link. :) See https://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Phabricator/Help#Formatting_and_markup

reference 2 on https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/It_(novel)

Thanks!
