Why do I keep getting edit requests?
I keep getting edit requests for projects I've never even posted. I have thought it might be bots because none of the accounts have any avatar or many projects at all. However, some do have projects. So I don't really know where these people are coming from, and they just randomly will send an edit request without even a comment. Is anyone else getting these random requests to edit?

maybe they just want to help edit some of your repls.

@RYANTADIPARTHI For some I can believe that, but some accounts do seem quite odd.
Yeah I get those a lot too.
Many users probably click that button on accident, or they just want to edit
@Coder100 Maybe they're trying to fork but instead accidentally try to edit.
yeah
that's like the number one cause of dislikes on youtube too @Evanlicious
edit: other than bad videos
@Coder100 what's the difference between an edit request and someone forking your repl?
@RolandJLevy When you fork a repl, you are just copying the code to a separate project owned by you. When you send an edit request, you are asking the person to edit the original repl. Hopefully this helps.
@Evanlicious yes, thanks - that helps :)
