Description Sage Ross 2010-07-21 16:51:03 UTC 
When I'm logged in to one of my global accounts, it doesn't register me as logged in when I go to outreach.wikimedia.org or strategy.wikimedia.org .  However, when I sign in there, it does sign me in on all the other wikis with my global account.

Here's what I do:
1.  Log on with one account of mine on English Wikipedia: [[User:Sross (Public Policy)]].  When I go to other projects, like Commons or another language Wikipedia, I'm automatically signed in.
2.  When I go to Outreach wiki, I'm not signed in.  If I sign in with a different account ([[User:Sageross]]), then I'm signed in on all the main wikis with that account now too.  (It signs me out of the other account.)
3.  If I then go to Strategy wiki, I'm not signed in there either.  If I sign in with a third account, [[User:Ragesoss]], then I'm switched to that account for all the main wikis.  But on Outreach wiki, I'm still signed in as Sageross.

This results in accidental edits with either the wrong account or as an IP.

Putting this back to dupe of bug 14407 -- bug 20852 is a mysterious request with no purpose or provenance to add a checkbox that, when unchecked, would alter the login behavior in a way that makes things more confusing in most cases.
