I have become active in the French Wikipedia as well as the English one, and often when I have been working on one, I find that I am logged out of the other. I posted a bug report about this (with the German Wiki) some time ago. I am now somehow logged out of both. Can someone fix this, or do you need more information?

I have exactly the same problem with French/Japanese wikis. I'm disconnected and I my password cookie is lost. Do all wikis share the same cookie ?

I have never, ever been able to reproduce this problem. Not with Mozilla 1.x, not with IE 5.5, not with Konqueror 2.2.
If you guys want help solving this, I want to see exact step by step instructions on reproducing it, from creation of a user account on.

No, each subdomain stores its separate cookies: PHPSESSID - Session ID wcUserID - the internal id number of your user account wcUserName - your user name wcUserPassword - a hash of your password. Only stored if you click the "store password across sessions" checkbox when logging in.
All expire one month after they are set (ie, at logon) except the session ID, which is set to expire at the end of your browser session.

I looked at my cookie jar and found four cookies in wikipedia.org. Some were set by www.wikipedia.org and some by fr.wikipedia.org. The four cookies are all set by www. I log into fr. Now they are gone. I click on an article in www. I am logged out. They are now: wcUserPassword: some hexadecimal gibberish set by www wcUsedID: 24 set by fr wcUserName: PierreAbbat set by fr PHPSESSID: some hexadecimal gibberish set by www Now I click on an article in fr. I am logged out of both. They are now vanished again.
I am using Konqueror 2.1.1.
