Unified Login or SUL (Single User Login) is a mechanism which allows users to use a single global login on most of the Wikimedia Foundation's projects. It allows to maintain a consistent identity across all linked projects, and no you necessarily don't have to login manually to each Wiki.
AFAIK, Unified login just gives the option of logging in with the same username and password, without creating a new one for each wiki project. You still need to login manually with that unified user name and password combination.
2011/2/12 shirish शिरीष <shirishag75@gmail.com>Hi all,
I know that sometime back unified login happened.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Unified_login
This is what I was doing :-
a. Was in EN:WP and logged in - looked at the entries.
b. Went to hindi wikipedia and tried to edit an article. I was not logged in.
c. Thought perhaps I'm not chosen Unified login so went to
http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:MergeAccount, says you are
unified.
d. Did a shift-F5 and refreshed the page without the cache, for some
reason the login didn't happen.
Any pointers as to what could be the issue ? This is on Mozilla
Firefox 3.6.3 on an Ubuntu 10.04 box although do not think its
something to do with either the browser or the distribution.
