I think I found a bug. I went to the

FreenodeCloaks page to check something and found that I needed to log in to
edit that page but I was already logged into the wiki (I had been working on
wiki sweep all week). I clicked on the "history" tab of that page and found
that I was indeed logged in - according to the content at the upper right
corner. I closed that tab in firefox, opened a new tab, manually typed in the
address again and found that the upper right corner of the page showed that I
needed to log in - but I was logged into the wiki the entire time. Is it normal
for some pages to not recognize a currently logged in state?
It could be the difference between http:// and https:// . We try to set the
session cookies to only return on https:// links -- otherwise someone could
hijack your session by intercepting packets.
